Zizek is amazing. He writes an article with "global finance" in the title but there is not a single reference to economic data. Instead it includes such pearls of wisdom:
Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace gave us a crucial hint as to where to orient ourselves in this melee, specifically, the “Christological” features of the young Anakin (his immaculate conception, his victorious “pod-car” race, with its echoes of the famous chariot race in Ben-Hur, this “tale of Christ”). Since Star Wars’ ideological framework is the New Age pagan universe, it is quite appropriate that its central figure of Evil should echo Christ. Honestly, I don't get it it. The Elvis super-star of Marxism? http://inthesetimes.com/article/2122/revenge_of_global_finance/ _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
