Notes	The constant driver of our time is relentless chaos. Žižek calmly and impartially examines the fractures of the left, the empty promises of liberal democracy, and the flimsy concessions made by the powerful. From the ashes of these failures, he underscores the need for international solidarity and economic transformation. This book is distinguished by its exceptional richness in paradoxes and reflections, and deals with the same analytical depth with the lessons of Ramstein, Corbin, Orwell, and Lenin. It also explores global truths from local political sites in Palestine, Chile, France, Kurdistan, and beyond. Can today's disasters be an incentive for progress, or have they turned into something terrible that cannot be repaired?
