Summary
The celebrated philosopher returns with a provoking analysis of Europe’s crisis. Exposing its real nature, he asks: what is to be done?
Today, hundreds of thousands of people, desperate to escape war, violence and poverty, are crossing the Mediterranean to seek refuge in Europe. Our response, argues Slavoj Zizek, offers two versions of ideological blackmail: either we open our doors as widely as possible; or we try to pull up the drawbridge. Both solutions are bad, states Zizek.
