" Zizek begins this book, provocative as always, with a deceptively simple question: what if the future is already lost? This revaluation of the relationship we have with the future allows us to question our actions in the present, actions which seem to move us closer and closer to catastrophe every day. Climate catastrophe, war, technocracy, failing capitalism, all these emergencies take on an air of inevitability when viewed in the present, but that, Zizek argues, is precisely why we need to envision a future where calamity has already struck." -  Amazon Customer Reviews

The most provocative philosopher of our times returns with a rousing and counterintuitive analysis of our global predicamentWe hear all the time that it's five minutes to global doomsday, so now is our last chance to avert disaster. But what if the only way to prevent a catastrophe is to assume that it has already happened - that we're already five minutes past zero hour?Why do we seem unable to avert our course to self-destruction? Too Late to Awaken sees Slavoj Žižek deliver his most forceful, hopeful account of our discontents yet. Surveying the interlocking crises we currently face - global warming, war, famine, disease - he points us towards the radical, emancipatory politics that we need in order to halt our drift towards disaster.Pithy, urgent and witty, Žižek's diagnosis reveals our current geopolitical nightmare in a startling new light, and shows why, in order to change our future, we must reimagine our past.
