International Journal of Žižek Studies
Publishing open access since 2007
Slavoj Žižek is a Slovenian philosopher/cultural theorist and intellectual tour de force. Notwithstanding such caricatured media portrayals as "the Elvis of cultural theory" and the "Marx Brother", Žižek has sustained enormous international scholarly interest with his inimitable application of otherwise esoteric works to contemporary mass culture and politics. Non-English language content is provided as an important part of IJŽS's aim to be a meaningfully international journal.
