The Reconstruction of Emancipatory Politics in the Post-Political Era:Also on ?i?ek's Philosophy of Action
Žižek diagnoses contemporary capitalism as a"post-political era"characterized by political termination--a time when established authority crumbles,grand narratives comes to an end,and politics degenerates into everyday security logic.In this post-political era,multiculturalism replaces ideological conflicts and presents itself as a form of political progress.H owever,Žižek dismisses multiculturalist's political progress as an illusion and identifies it as an ideal ideology within the global capitalist system.Based on his critique of multiculturalism,Žižek focuses on reconstructing emancipatory politics by integrating Lacanian subjectivity with Leninist revolutionary perspectives to develop his own philosophy of action.This phi-losophy reshapes the revolutionary subject in the post-political era through a death drive,rejects most left-wing pseudo-action strategies influenced by Bataille's anti-politics,opens up space for revolutionary violence,and outlines the contours of eman-cipatory politics in the post-political era through Leninist decisive actions.Žižek's philosophy of action is a bold attempt at re-constructing emancipatory politics in the post-political era and provides valuable theoretical insights for contemporary left-wing movements seeking to break free from their political termination dilemma.
