"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.<br /><br />In ''The Neighbor</I>, three 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.<br /><br />A rich and suggestive account of the interplay between love and hate, self and other, personal and political, ''The Neighbor</I> will prove to be a touchstone across the humanities and a crucial text for understanding the persistence of political theology in secular modernity.</div>''''''</div><div class="book-info"><div class="book-info__download">[https://libgen.me/item/adv/1432848 <u>Download</u>]</div></div></div>[[Category:Slavoj Zizek Downloads]] [[Category:Slavoj Zizek:Books]] [[Category:Slavoj Zizek:Bibliography]] [[Category:Slavoj Zizek Books]]</div>
