Public open lecture for the students and faculty of the European Graduate School EGS Media and Communication Studies department program Saas-Fee Switzerland Europe 2009 Slavoj Zizek. Slavoj Žižek • Slavoj Zizek is a Slovenian post-modern philosopher and psychonalayst as well as one of the foremost cultural critics operating in the world today. Slavoj Žižek holds a chair at the Institute for Sociology in Ljubljana as well as being a returning professor at the European Graduate School in Saas Fee Switzerland. There is little in contemporary thought that Zizek has not explored on some level. From communism to maoism, film studies to literature, and from Lenin to the issue of torture in the post-9/11 world, Slavoj Žižek's work has, and continues to, inform the dialogue that surrounds them. Zizek's first book in English translation, The Sublime Object of Ideology, examines the issues surrounding the placement of sublime objects in a regime's iconography which allow it to transgress or alter commonly accepted moral law or thought. It is these objects—be it God, Fuhrer, Dear Leader or Land, the Flag, Democracy—that allow the regimes to self-sanctify their actions. While much of Zizek's work is strictly philosophical or pyschoanalytical dealing with Hegel, Kant, Freud and Lacan, since 9/11 his work has become increasingly political, directly referencing the illegal actions taken by the Bush administration and the complicit nature of the European regimes of Blair, Sarkozy and Berlusconi. Slavoj Žižek's latest title, analyzing the financial meltdown of 2009, First As Tragedy, Then As Farce, will be released in November of 2009. • • Slavoj Zizek is the author of The Sublime Object of Ideology (1989), For They Know Not What They Do: Enjoyment As A Political Factor (1991), Looking Awry: an Introduction to Jacques Lacan through Popular Culture(1991), Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Lacan (But Were Afraid To Ask Hitchcock) (1992), Enjoy Your Symptom!
