Just thought you'd like to know that there's a 2 page interview in this week's issue of New Scientist with Slavoj Žižek about his new book.

From what I can tell his new book (Living in the End Times) describes four elements of the apocalypse (in the revelatory rather than catastrophic sense) in terms of the demise of Western capitalism.

Interestingly, the article says he's been described as "the most dangerous philosopher in the West".

Thanks for turning me on to Žižek Grufty, I don't agree with a fair bit of what he says, but I do like the 'cut of his jib'.

Peace
