Geweld by Slavoj Žižek

Six Sideways Reflections

A provocative collection of essays that reconceptualizes violence beyond individual acts to include systemic and symbolic forms, arguing that mainstream discourse fixates on visible perpetrators while obscuring the structural violence embedded in political, economic and ideological systems. Drawing on philosophy, psychoanalysis and contemporary events, it exposes ideological blind spots, critiques Western responses to terrorism and war, and urges a radical rethinking of how societies diagnose and respond to violence.
