Zizek and Heidegger: The Question Concerning Techno-Capitalism – Continuum Studies in Continental Philosophy

Description

An interpretation of the work of Slavoj Zizek, one of the world’s leading contemporary thinkers, through a study of his relationship with the work of Martin Heidegger. It argues that Zizek’s oeuvre is largely a response to Heidegger’s philosophy of finitude, an imminent critique of it which pulls it in the direction of revolutionary praxis.
