Slavoj Žižek is one of the most prolific and well-known philosophers and cultural theorists in the world today. His inventive, provocative body of work mixes Hegelian metaphysics, Lacanian psychoanalysis and Marxist dialectic in order to challenge conventional wisdom and accepted verities on both the Left and the Right. Quoting Žižek, three of his most insightful books include The Sublime Object of Ideology (2009), Tarrying with the Negative: Kant, Hegel, and the Critique of Ideology (1993) and The Ticklish Subject: The Absent Centre of Political Ontology (2009).
