"Žižek" and "Zizek" redirect here. For the biographical documentary film, see Zizek!. Slavoj Žižek (Slovene pronunciation: [ˈslavoj ˈʒiʒɛk] ( ); born 21 March 1949) is a Slovenian Marxist philosopher, and cultural critic, a senior researcher at the Institute for Sociology and Philosophy, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia, Global Distinguished Professor of German at New York University,[1] and international director of the Birkbeck Institute for the Humanities. He writes widely on a diverse range of topics, including political theory, film theory, cultural studies, theology, and psychoanalysis. Žižek achieved international recognition as a social theorist after the 1989 publication of his first book in English, The Sublime Object of Ideology, which disputed a Marxist interpretation of ideology as false consciousness and argued for ideology as an unconscious fantasy that structures reality.

Planetary boundaries Limits not to be exceeded if humanity wants to survive in a safe ecosystem Planetary boundaries are a framework to describe limits to the impacts of human activities on the Earth system. Beyond these limits, the environment may not be able to self-regulate anymore. This would mean the Earth system would leave the period of stability of the Holocene, in which human society developed.[2][3][4] The framework is based on scientific evidence that human actions, especially those of industrialized societies since the Industrial Revolution, have become the main driver of global environmental change. The normative component of the framework is that human societies have been able to thrive under the comparatively stable climatic and ecological conditions of the Holocene. The concept has since become influential in the international community (e.g. In 2015, several of the scientists in the original group published an update, bringing in new co-authors and new model-based analysis.

Slavoj Žižek: Wildes Denken Popstars werden schon beim vergleichsweise unspektakulären Verlassen eines Ankunftsgates am Flughafen fotografiert. Also hat der Reporter erst recht vor Ort zu sein, wenn der legendäre Philosoph Slavoj Žižek zur Mittagszeit im Hotel im Frankfurter Rotlichtviertel, Nähe Hauptbahnhof, eincheckt. Es passiert natürlich nicht viel – aber es ist sofort aufregend, bei diesem wenigen dabei zu sein: Slavoj Žižek ist beim ersten Anblick gleich ganz Slavoj Žižek, so wie Lady Gaga beim ersten Anblick gleich ganz Lady Gaga ist. Er ist nicht groß (vielleicht 1,75 Meter). Die berühmten Haare (grau, verfilzt, seit Tagen oder Wochen nicht gewaschen), der Bart, die berühmte graue Gesichtsfarbe. Zizek, Slavoj | Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy Slavoj Zizek is a Slovenian-born political philosopher and cultural critic. He was described by British literary theorist, Terry Eagleton, as the “most formidably brilliant” recent theorist to have emerged from Continental Europe. Zizek’s work is infamously idiosyncratic. One feature of Zizek’s work is its singular philosophical and political reconsideration of German idealism (Kant, Schelling and Hegel). This article explains Zizek’s philosophy as a systematic, if unusually presented, whole; and it clarifies the technical language Zizek uses, which he takes from Lacanian psychoanalysis, Marxism, and German idealism. Table of Contents 1. Slavoj Zizek was born in 1949 in Ljubljana, Slovenia. 2. a. In a way that is oddly reminiscent of Nietzsche, Zizek generally presents his work in a polemical fashion, knowingly striking out against the grain of accepted opinion. Zizek agrees with critics about this “false consciousness” model of ideology. b. c. d. e.

Cruelty Squad 2021 video game The game was released in early access on Steam on 4 January 2021, and was fully released on Steam on 15 June 2021.[10] Reviews were largely positive, with many reviewers appreciating the game's unique presentation, design, and combination of different mechanics and themes. Gameplay[edit] The player chooses their weaponry and equipment before starting each of the 19 missions present in the game, and then must traverse open, sandbox-style levels to locate and neutralize targets.[11][6] Health lost during combat can be regained by using certain equipment, consuming cooked giblets, or even eating corpses should the player die enough times on a level ("Power In Misery", the easiest difficulty level). Synopsis[edit] Setting[edit] Plot[edit] After being discharged from the "SEC Death Unit", the player character receives a phone call from his handler, who offers him employment within Cruelty Squad. There are three endings to the game, achieved by beating three different levels.

Slavoj Zizek vs. Jordan Peterson: Marxist gewinnt Philosophenduell - SPIEGE In der linken Ecke also Slavojv Zizek, 70, der binnen 30 Jahren eine ganze Bibliothek mit Büchern über Marxismus, Ideologie, Postmoderne, Psychoanalyse, Romantik, Gewalt, Toleranz, Totalitarismus, Oper, Kino und Literatur gefüllt hat. In der rechten Ecke Jordan Peterson, 54, der ein Buch über die neurologische Konstruktion von Sinn und einen Lebensratgeber geschrieben hat. Im Vorfeld wurde dieser Witz von einer Diskussion als "Debatte des Jahrhunderts" annonciert. Wäre "Zizek vs. Peterson" ein Boxkampf, müsste er wegen mangelnder Fairness abgesagt werden. Überdies eint, bei allen Unterschieden, Zizek und Peterson die gleiche Skepsis in Fragen der Identitätspolitik, der LGBTQ-Bewegung und der Political Correctness. Verschwörungstheorie auf den Leim gegangen? Peterson geht mit der Idee hausieren, die LGBT- und die #MeToo-Bewegung sei eine marxistische Methode, die Fundamente der westlichen Kultur anzugreifen. Peterson forderte Zizek daraufhin zum Duell. Utopisch sei nicht der Kommunismus.

O que é o Glück? | Glück Project Glück Project é uma investigação sobre a felicidade. Nós acreditamos que o debate sobre felicidade, arte, compaixão e as grandes questões da vida não precisa ser chato nem piegas. São discussões legais, e têm de fazer parte da vida das pessoas comuns, como nós e vocês. Vamos botá-las na moda? O projeto foi criado por Karin Hueck e Fred Di Giacomo, dois jornalistas que largaram seus empregos na Editora Abril e resolveram reformular suas vidas e suas carreiras. A ideia do Glück é fazer um jornalismo menos “fast food” com textos semanais longos, que procuram gerar reflexão e têm mais foco na relevância do que na audiência. Nós NÃO acreditamos que a felicidade só seja possível se você “largar tudo” ou mudar de país. -Apoie o Glück, assine o Glück! Importante: Gostou dos textos e quer divulgá-los?

The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie 1972 film by Luis Buñuel The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (French: Le Charme discret de la bourgeoisie) is a 1972 comedy-drama film directed by Luis Buñuel from a screenplay he co-wrote with Jean-Claude Carrière.[2] The narrative concerns a group of bourgeois people attempting—despite continual interruptions—to dine together. The French-language film stars Fernando Rey, Stéphane Audran, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Paul Frankeur, Delphine Seyrig, Bulle Ogier, Julien Bertheau, and Milena Vukotic. The film consists of several thematically linked scenes: five gatherings of a group of bourgeois friends, and the four dreams of different characters. Buñuel plays tricks on his characters, luring them toward fine dinners that they expect, and then repeatedly frustrating them in inventive ways. The film was both a critical and commercial success. Plot[edit] Arriving at the inn, the party finds it locked. Simone meets Acosta at his apartment. Cast[edit] Production[edit] Pre-production[edit] See also[edit]

Em atos que se espalharam por capitais e outras cidades brasileiras, manifestantes usaram a internet para dar musculatura à mobilização e, depois, foram às ruas. Abramovay avalia que esse fenômeno é o resultado de uma combinação de dois fatores: internautas mais politizados na rede diante de um cenário em que a política está muito obsoleta. "Tinha gente que dizia: 'Olha só, isso é uma despolitização, isso se resume a sofá'. "Quando as pessoas compartilhavam uma petição pelo Facebook, pelo Twitter, elas estavam assumindo posição política diante dos seus amigos. Reforma. Respostas pontuais. Apartidarismo. Para ele, não existe democracia sem legendas.

Capitalism without growth Constant capital and population size A steady-state economy is an economy made up of a constant stock of physical wealth (capital) and a constant population size. In effect, such an economy does not grow in the course of time.[1]: 366–369 [2]: 545 [3][4] The term usually refers to the national economy of a particular country, but it is also applicable to the economic system of a city, a region, or the entire world. Early in the history of economic thought, classical economist Adam Smith of the 18th century developed the concept of a stationary state of an economy: Smith believed that any national economy in the world would sooner or later settle in a final state of stationarity.[5]: 78 A steady-state economy is not to be confused with economic stagnation: Whereas a steady-state economy is established as the result of deliberate political action, economic stagnation is the unexpected and unwelcome failure of a growth economy.
