Arguably the most prolific and most widely read philosopher of our time, Slavoj iek has made indelible interventions into many disciplines of the so-called human sciences that have transformed the terms of discussion in these fields. Although his work has been the subject of many volumes of searching criticism and commentary, there is no assessment to date of the value of his work for the development of these disciplines. iek Now brings together distinguished critics to explore the utility and far-ranging implications of iek's thought and provide an evaluation of the difference his work makes or promises to make in their chosen fields. As such, the volume offers chapters on quantum physics and iek's transcendentalist materialist theory of the subject, Hegel's absolute, materialist Christianity, postcolonial violence, eco-politics, ceremonial acts, and the postcolonial revolutionary subject. Contributors to the volume include Adrian Johnston, Ian Parker, Todd McGowan, Bruno Bosteels, Erik Vogt, Verena Conley, Joshua Ramey, Jamil Khader, and iek himself.
Dr. Jamil Khader, Professor of English and Dean of Research at Bethlehem University, Palestine.
Molly Anne Rothenberg is professor of english at Tulane University.
