This book is an exploration of Zizek’s theory of freedom. By
examining key passages in Zizek's work the aim is to provide a
functional, serviceable philosophy of power and ideology and show
how this philosophy of power relates to freedom. Although some,
like Noam Chomsky, have criticized Zizek’s work as having no
guiding principles, it is suggested that this misses the fact that
Zizek’s philosophy utilizes a dialectical methodology that often
appears contradictory. Though a highly astute reader with a
background in the philosophical texts he frequently cites (the
German Idealists, Freud, and modern philosophers), it becomes clear
that there is a uniquely Zizekian philosophy that mobilizes a
radical hermeneutics of freedom.
