Zizek demands we take a long, hard look at the painful reality of
education in contemporary capitalist society, and to actively seek
out its 'trouble in paradise': Why is it education is supposedly
failing to meet the demands of our society? Why is it there are
record levels of stress for teachers? Why is it there is a record
level of complaints from our university students? How is it now
possible to compare a higher education course with a vacuum
cleaner, toaster or television? This book illuminates aspects of
Zizek's ideas which sheds light into these modern challenges and
tensions in education, and considers alternative ways forward.
Though Zizek frustrates as much as he inspires with his own recipe
of Lacan, Hegel and Marx, this book aims to give an entry route
into Zizekian critique of education, a topic area he very rarely
directly talks about.
