Slavoj Zizek’s new book is about the metamorphoses of radicalism. Having ceased to even be a commodity, the idea became a phantom pain. Radicalism is no longer a type of political action, but a desire to escape from oneself and forget from pain. The time of empires has passed, the time has come for authorities who have lost themselves. They rush into the arms of either war, or peace, or financial transactions, or peacekeeping forces. Everything is radicalized - sexuality, cinema, ideologies, sovereignties. The radical is gaining value, but his activism has become worthless. Žižek's political psychoanalysis restores the sovereignty of a radical frustrated by pain and fear. The author more and more confidently foreshadows (and even calls for) the coming of a new Master of the Left. Translation: Evgeny Savitsky, I. Levina, Anna Ozhiganova, D. Semilutskikh
