I promise that we will make it to this lecture.
QDN favorite, philosopher, political scientist, dialectician, and economist, Slavoj Zizek was recently published in the International Journal of Zizek Studies.
QDN congratulates Zizek on his unusual accomplishment making it into the peer reviewed section of the journal which bears his name. Especially since we often think of him as little more than an intellectual curiosity with the bad habit of using films to explain almost everything. Really, SZ, well done.
Unfortunately the fascists at "the provincial pamphlet of Hacizade mutterings" still won't take someone's submissions.
While officially, I think Zizek's presence in his own journal is due to the fact that no one is going to pay $40 for a defense of Lenin and Heidegger, during the first major recession of the 21st century, I genuinley look forward to proudly walking around with the contented feeling that someday I will read "Language, Violence and Non-Violence". I probably will not, however, read SZ's advice column in LRB on the financial crisis, titled, "Don't Just do Something, Talk." Thanks.
