Books like First as tragedy, then as farce by Slavoj Žižek


In this incisive examination, Slavoj Žižek frames contemporary moral crises through the lens of the first decade of the 21st century. He argues that the events of 9/11 and the global financial crash expose a dual assault on liberalism—first as a political doctrine, then as an economic theory. Žižek’s critique interweaves cultural influence, ideological structures, and capitalist dynamics to illuminate the broader implications for international finance and globalization.
