=====Introduction==[[Žižek]]'s account of [[law]] is built upon the reiteration of the idea that ''[[law]] is [[split]]'' or that ''there is a [[parallax view|parallax]] [[gap]] between the '''[[public]] [[letter]]''' and its '''[[obscene]] [[superego]] [[supplement]]'''''.<ref>{{Z}} ''[[The Parallax View]]''.

Yet ''[[law]] as such is [[lack|incomplete]]''.
==Law's Founding==
How does [[violence]] ''persist'' in [[law]], and what is its relation to '''[[law|split law]]'''?
===Surplus===
As a nonintegrated non-integrated, [[surplus]],
[[violenceViolence]] gives ''persists'' in the [[form]] of [[law]] the form of as an ''[[injunction]]'', .
As a nonintegrated [[surplus]], [[violence]] gives [[law]] the form of an '''Law'[[injunction]]'' , rendering [[law]] as that which is constitutively senseless:to be obeyed.
'''Law''' is constitutively senseless: it is obeyed not because it is [[good]], just, or beneficial, but because it is [[law]].
As [[Zizek]] explains, "The last foundation of the [[Law]]'s [[authority ]] lies in its [[process ]] of [[enunciation]]."<ref>{{Z}} "How Did [[Marx ]] Invent the [[Symptom]]?" in ''[[Mapping Ideology]]''. Ed. [[Slavoj Zizek]]. Verso: [[London]], 1944. p. 318</ref>
This [[traumatic]], nonintegrated [[character]] of [[law]] is a positive condition of [[law]].<ref>{{Z}} "How Did Marx Invent [[the Symptom]]?" in ''[[Mapping Ideology]]''. Ed. Slavoj Zizek. Verso: London, 1944. p. 319</ref>
This traumatic[[trauma]]tic, nonintegrated character of [[lawsenseless]] [[injunction]] is a positive condition of also the [[psychoanalytic]] [[lawnotion]].<ref>{{Z}} "How Did Marx Invent of the Symptom?" in ''[[Mapping Ideologysuperego]]''. Ed. Slavoj Zizek. Verso: London, 1944. p. 319</ref>
[[Superego]] issues unconditional commands, telling us what to do, refusing to take no for an answer, refusing even to consider our specific circumstances, [[needs]] or desires.
The [[superego]] command is thus more than a simple [[prohibition]]. It is a [[prohibition]] compliance with which produces [[enjoyment]]. When we obey the [[superego]], when we give up our own [[desire]] and comply or follow [[orders]], a part of us, or, more precisely the [[Other]] within us, [[enjoy]]s.
'''[[Superego]] thus involves the [[excess]] of [[law]], the [[violence]] that ''persists'' in [[law]]'s ''[[injunction]]''.'''
