The very first book dedicated to Slavoj Zizek¿s theoretical treatment of law, this book gathers widely recognized Zizek scholars and legal theorists to analyise the place of law in Zizek¿s work. Whether it is with reference to symbolic law, psychoanalytical law, religious law, positive law, human rights, to Lacan¿s, Hegel¿s, or Kant¿s philosophies of law, or even to Jewish or Buddhist law, Zizek's work offers a new approach to law's role within the framework of radical politics.
