In [[Civilization]] and Its Discontents, [[Freud]] made abundantly clear what he [[thought]] [[about]] the [[biblical]] [[injunction]], first articulated in Leviticus 19:18 and then elaborated in [[Christian]] [[teachings]], to [[love]] one's [[neighbor]] as oneself. "Let us adopt a naive attitude towards it," he proposed, "as though we were hearing it for the first [[time]]; we shall be unable then to suppress a [[feeling]] of surprise and bewilderment." After the horrors of [[World]] War II, the [[Holocaust]], [[Stalinism]], and [[Yugoslavia]], Leviticus 19:18 seems even less conceivable—but all the more urgent now—than Freud imagined.
In The Neighbor, [[Categorythree]] of the most significant intellectuals [[working]] in [[psychoanalysis]] and critical [[theory]] collaborate to show how this problem of neighbor-love opens questions that are fundamental to [[ethical]] inquiry and that [[suggest]] a new theological configuration of [[political]] theory. Their three extended essays explore today's central historical problem:the persistence of the theological in the political. In "Towards a Political [[Theology]] of the Neighbor," Kenneth Reinhard supplements Carl [[Schmitt]]'s political theology of the [[enemy]] and friend with a political theology of the neighbor based in psychoanalysis. In "Miracles Happen," Eric L. Santner extends the book's exploration of neighbor-love through a bracing reassessment of [[Benjamin]] and Rosenzweig. And in an impassioned plea for ethical [[violence]], [[Slavoj Žižek]]'s "Neighbors and [[Other]] Monsters" reconsiders the [[idea]] of [[excess]] to rehabilitate a positive [[sense]] of the inhuman and challenge the influence of [[Levinas]] on contemporary ethical thought. A rich and suggestive account of the interplay between love and [[hate]], [[self]] and other, personal and political, The Neighbor will prove to be a touchstone across the humanities and a crucial [[text]] for [[understanding]] the persistence of political theology in secular [[Categorymodernity]]. =====Product Details====={| style="width:100%; border:1px solid #aaa;text-align:left; line-height:2.0em; padding-left:Works by 10px;"|width="100%"| [[Slavoj Žižek|Zizek, Slavoj]], [[Eric L.
