Content introduction:

Borrowing a Pot was published in Freud's jokes about dream interpretation. There are three sayings: first, I have never borrowed your pot; Second, I have returned it to you intact; Third, when I brought the pot from you, it was broken. This inconsistent statement is just to deny the fact that you are given back a broken jar.

Zizek believes that the logic of the United States to find reasons for sending troops to Iraq is exactly the same as the above joke. He also said that this book is not about Iraq, and this war is not about Iraq, but about all of us. The author quotes Freud's exposition on "borrowed pot", analyzes the contradictions and loopholes in attacking Iraq, and reveals the truth behind the chaotic narrative. Although the topic of the Iraq war in the United States is gradually drifting away, it does not mean that the topic of this book is outdated, because the Iraq war marks a new international political order and a change in the rules of the international political game. As always, Zizek, the author of this book, never stops talking.

About the author:

Slavoj Zizek, a senior researcher in sociology and philosophy at the University of Ljubljana, is the most important successor of Lacan tradition. He has long been committed to linking Lacan's psychoanalysis theory with Marxist philosophy, integrating psychoanalysis, subjectivity, ideology and popular culture, forming a very unique academic thought and political stance, becoming one of the most dazzling international academic stars since the 1990s, and being called a Hegelian thinker by some scholars. He has been a visiting professor at many famous universities such as University of Paris VIII, University of Minnesota, Columbia University and Princeton University, and is active in various international academic seminars such as philosophy, psychoanalysis and cultural criticism. Everywhere he went, he attracted widespread attention. Jameson said that he "made an unusual sound, and we will hear it again and again in the next few years". Eagleton rated him as one of the most important thinkers in Europe in recent ten years.
