=Review by [http://www.lacan.com/zizekchro2.htm Tony Myers]=
Presented as a sequel to The Sublime Object of Ideology, this book
examines the historical change emblematized by the shift in the telling
of the Rabinovitch joke from that first book. In particular, it analyses
the re-emergence of militant nationalism and racism in the wake of
the break-up of the socialist countries of Eastern Europe. Žižek iden-
tifies the cause of this re-emergence in an eruption of enjoyment. This
book also contains an extended discussion of the concept of the
vanishing mediator.
