The concept offers a glimpse into the murky landscape of half-lies and double-truths that Zizek enters in this latest collection of urgent essays. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e From the economy and politics to ideology, these short texts work through the different faces of liberal fascisms, structured around a trio of the universal, the particular, and the singular: our global predicament; Europe and the Middle East; Trump's America. Peeling back the inadequate labels we hasten to pin on the phenomena that terrify us - like 'post-truth'- to peer at the seeping wounds beneath them, these writings reveal the uneasy mixture of hypocrisy, self-deception and what is real that have \u003ci\u003ealways \u003c\/i\u003ebeen stacked, matryoshka like, inside of one another. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With no cure in hand, but a refusal to dispense with thought that is muddled and murky, these interventions are both timely and resolute. From the so-called \"death of truth\" opens up the possibility for a new authentic truth... or for an even bigger lie. And ultimately we must ask - what forms of justice are made possible by this disorder? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eLiberal Fascisms\u003c\/i\u003e is also available in audiobook format from audiobook retailers.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSlavoj Zizek\u003c\/b\u003e is a Hegelian philosopher, a Lacanian psychoanalyst, and a Communist.
