Responses to the Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Zizek have been, like
Zizek himself, extreme. Critics have accused him of charlatanism on
the one hand, while others have lauded his genius, especially as a
public intellectual, on the other. This makes it difficult to find
any kind of nuanced or interesting critical appraisal of his work.
At its best Zizek's work provides a new foundation of dialectical
philosophy, beyond the glitz of stardom or oversimplified sinister
disdain. Zizek Responds! combines philosophers and theorists
engaging with Zizek's philosophy in order to explore its unnoticed
implications, its conceptual problems, or its unrealized potential.
With detailed and lively responses from Zizek himself, this book
offers an unique insight into how this thinker might explain,
clarify and hone some of his most controversial and misunderstood
ideas. At once an introduction to Zizek's most important concepts
and a rare and novel insight into his thoughts on the criticisms of
his work, this is indispensible reading for both Zizekians and
their critics.
