First as tragedy, then as farce
Žižek, Slavoj2009
Book
After the collapse of the liberal-democratic political utopia, on the morning of 9/11, came the collapse of the economic utopia of global market capitalism at the end of 2008. Marx argued that history repeated itself - first as tragedy, then as farce - and Žižek notes that the repetition as farce can be even more terrifying.
