Contents:

Introduction: divided we stand! -- Diagnosis: hors d'oeuvre? -- Cardiognosis: du jambo cru? -- Prognosis: un faux-filet, peut-être? -- Epignosis: j'ai hâte de vous servir!.

Summary: In Trouble in Paradise, Slavoj Žižek, one of our most famous, most combative philosophers, explains how we can find a way out of the crisis of capitalism. Setting out to diagnose the condition of global capitalism, the ideological constraints we are faced with in our daily lives, and the bleak future promised by this system, Slavoj Žižek explores the possibilities -- and the traps -- of new emancipatory struggles. rawing insights from phenomena as diverse as "Gangnam Style" to Marx, The Dark Knight to Thatcher, Trouble in Paradise is an incisive dissection of the world we inhabit, and the new order to come.
