Description: Slavoj i ek's prolific comments on anti - Semitism Islamophobia scapegoating popular nationalism the refugee crisis Eurocentrism the War on Terror neocolonialism global justice and rioting comprise a dizzying array of thinking. But what can we pull out of his various writings and commentaries on race in the contemporary world? Is there anything approaching a i ekian philosophy of race? Zahi Zalloua argues here that there is and that the often polemical style of i ek's pronouncements shouldn't undermine the importance and urgency of his work in this area. Zalloua not only examines i ek's philosophy of race but addresses the misconceptions that have arisen and some of the perceived shortcomings in his work to date. i ek on Race also puts i ek in dialogue with critical race and anti - colonial studies dwelling on the sparks struck up by this dialogue and the differences gaps and absences it points up. Engaging i ek's singular contribution to the analysis of race and racism i ek on Race both patiently interrogates and critically extends his direct comments on the topic developing more fully the potential of his thought. In a response to the book i ek boldly reaffirms his theoretical stance clarifying further his often difficult - to - work - out positions on some of his more controversial pronouncements.
