This is an amazing book, written by an amazing philosopher. There's a lot of history background that is used for this book to acknowledge how violence behaves in our society and how hypocrites we are at handling it.

A worth reading book, but advise: It's dense and Zizek writing style is not for everyone. Take your time to read it.

My favourite phrase from the book (that I read in spanish): "A veces no hacer nada es lo más violento que puede hacerse."
