Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
The interviewer towards the end says "I'll be honest there were some things in your book that I didn't quite understand".. haha quite the understatement, she was almost never following what he was saying. Nevertheless a really enjoyable interview cause she let him talk a lot rather than cutting him off all the time like i would have expected, and that's a good length of an interview too.
Bravo, Zizek at his best. With the shape the world is in, to not provoke is to maintain the ideology of the happy Hollywood ending. As Lacan said, God is not dead, he is unconscious.
As always, Zizek is a master provocateur of unique ideas and concepts. Loved every minute of it, even if the interviewer was a little narrow-minded at times.
