I’ve recently had a paper published in the International Journal of Zizek studies titled, “There’s a Crack in Everything that’s How the Light Gets In” . Slavoj Zizek is arguably the world’s most famous living philosopher. He is an eccentric wild man with a comic wit and has recently had a feature documentary made about him (Zizek!)

This paper draws a somewhat disturbing connection between Zizek’s magus opus “The Parallax View” - and the paradoxical teachings of Jesus of Nazareth (a central theme of this blog). As such, it opens the space for a revolutionary politics that can shatter the co-ordinates of the existing order with an unexpected intrusion from an altogether unheard of dimension…. So this paper is basically the groundwork for the political future of the crucified God, and as good Christians have always known - we do not need to wait for the right moment to start the revolution anymore, for the Christ-event had already happened… we can simply act as of the Kingdom is already at hand

Also, check out The Universe According to Slavoj Zizek for a brief video introduction to his absurdly optimistic and unpredictable view of the world

Thanks for reading
