This week, we once again turn to one of Tillich Today's favorite contemporary philosophers, Slavoj Žižek, to talk about the complicated relationship between Lacanian psychoanalysis and gender identity. We also debate Žižek's recent work and discuss the complexities surrounding his attitudes towards trans rights, examining the strengths and limitations of using psychoanalysis to understand the politics of gender identity in modern contexts. If you're interested in hearing more about the experience of being trans from an actual trans person or you simply fancy a good conversation on Jacques Lacan and Slavoj Žižek, this episode is for you!
