Afterword by Slajov i ek
It has been the brilliance of Slovenian philosopher Slavoj i ek (b. 1949) to uniquely weave theology, psychoanalysis, and politics together into stunning commentary on contemporary culture. Assuming little prior knowledge of this controversial (atheist, communist) philosopher, Marcus Pound provides the first comprehensive, systematic account of i ek's work as it relates specifically to theology and religious studies."
