Slavoj Zizek (born 1949) is a Slovenian philosopher, cultural theorist and public intellectual. He is international director of the Birkbeck Institute for the Humanities at the University of London, visiting professor at New York University and a senior researcher at the University of Ljubljana's Department of Philosophy. He primarily works on continental philosophy (particularly Hegelianism, psychoanalysis and Marxism) and political theory, as well as film criticism and theology. Zizek also holds a doctorate in philosophy. He is called "Elvis philosophy" and "academic rock star."
The debut book of Petr Takac, a left-wing philosopher and popularizer of the philosophy of Slavoj Zizek, deals with the question of what we believe today, in the era after the end of the great ideologies. What we are guided by when we claim to believe in nothing and how the remnants of our faith are concentrated in the utopia of liberal democracy. The author perceives Zizek's examination of ideology as a follow-up to the philosophical tradition and relies on the rather complicated categorical apparatus of Lacanian psychoanalysis, such as faith, language and symbolic order.
