On Iran

I had just deleted from the criticism section the part about Iran. All it was was a comment from Hamid Dabashi claiming he doesn't know that Zizek doesn't know what he's talking about. There was no substance to the criticism, or anything at all really. The section didn't go into why exactly Dabashi thinks Zizek was wrong, he just sort of states it as if it were self-evident. xcuref1endx (talk) 1:32, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

The "thought" section

I fail to understand why are the topics on the section "thought" the most relevant about his work. The list presented in this section (the real, the symbolic, etc.) is nothing more than a Lacan reference. Zizek's work is way beyond that, and I know it may be difficult for us to make a brief description about every topic he has worked on, but the ones listed are far from providing to the reader a synthesis of his work. I vote for deleting this section, or changing it completely.

Also the entire Symbolic section is copy and pasted from here: http://www.lacan.com/zizekchro1.htm --24.61.191.94 (talk) 09:58, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

The entire section on his thought is terrible.. If I had more time I would work on it. Somebody needs to produce a much more sophisticated and more in-the-know version of the thought section. --184.144.8.151 (talk) 01:27, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
