فات الأوان للاستيقاظ | ماذا يخبئ لنا المستقبل عندما لا يكون هناك مستقبل؟

The West's most dangerous philosopher returns with a provocative, counterintuitive analysis of our global predicament. Zizek's most compelling and easy-to-understand book yet invites us to imagine that catastrophe is inevitable, so that we can actually save the world. We constantly hear that we are moments away from doomsday. All around us, crises intertwine and escalate, threatening our collective survival: Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and the growing risk of nuclear war it entails, is taking place against a backdrop of global warming, environmental collapse, and widespread social and economic unrest. Protesters and politicians repeatedly call for action, but we continue to drift toward disaster. We need to do something. But what if the only way to prevent disaster is to assume it has already happened – to accept that we are five minutes past zero hour? In his book “_Too Late to Wake Up”_, Slavoj Žižek establishes a vital new space for a radical emancipatory politics capable of changing our course toward self-destruction. Žižek shows why the liberal left has so far failed to offer this alternative, and exposes the insidious propaganda of the fascist right, which has exploited and manipulated once-progressive ideas. Zizek's concise, urgent, poignant, and masterful diagnosis reveals our current geopolitical nightmare in a startling new light, showing how in order to change our future, we must first focus on changing the past.
