This book argues for the significance of ideology critique and
moral judgment in the fields of literary, cultural, political and
philosophical studies. By drawing on Slavoj D; iE; ek's theory of
ideology the author examines postmodern horror films like Jonathan
Demme's The Silence of the Lambs, multiculturalism, post-September
11 political discourses and the society of enjoyment in terms of
paranoia and perversion and reveals patterns of enjoyment
structured through ideological fantasy. The Lacanian/D; iE; ekian
theory of ideological fantasy and ethics of psychoanalysis is then
applied to broader philosophical, political and cultural contexts.
