Filling a genuine gap in Zizek interpretation - through examining
his relationship with Martin Heidegger, the author offers a new and
useful overview of Zizek's work."Zizek and Heidegger" offers a
radical new interpretation of the work of Slavoj Zizek, one of the
world's leading contemporary thinkers, through a study of his
relationship with the work of Martin Heidegger. Thomas Brockelman
argues that Zizek's oeuvre is largely a response to Heidegger's
philosophy of finitude, an immanent critique of it which pulls it
in the direction of revolutionary praxis. Brockelman also finds
limitations in Zizek's relationship with Heidegger, specifically in
his ambivalence about Heidegger's technophobia.Brockelman's
critique of Zizek departs from this ambivalence - a fundamental
tension in Zizek's work between a historicist critical theory of
techno-capitalism and an anti-historicist theory of revolutionary
change. In addition to clarifying what Zizek has to say about our
world and about the possibility of radical change in it, "Zizek and
Heidegger" explores the various ways in which this split at the
center of his thought appears within it - in Zizek's views on
history or on the relationship between the revolutionary leader and
the proletariat or between the analyst and the analysand.
