In "Less Than Nothing", the pinnacle publication of a distinguished career, Slavoj Zizek argues that it is imperative that we not simply return to Hegel but that we repeat and exceed his triumphs, overcoming his limitations by being even more Hegelian than the master himself. Such an approach not only enables Zizek to diagnose our present condition, but also to engage in a critical dialogue with the key strands of contemporary thought - Heidegger, Badiou, speculative realism, quantum physics and cognitive sciences. Modernity will begin and end with Hegel.

The researcher acted as an editor in the publication of Berlin’s famous lectures on The Roots of Romanticism. He contributed an afterword to this work where he discussed a new type of truth value specific to the romantic period, a truth distinguished by the sublation of the thing in itself and the institution of the place of enunciation, hence the two basic conditions to the formation of the public space.

Exploring on Hegel's theory of action, the paper purports to show how the moral attitude of Kantian subject produces the very loss of world that precludes the subject to become what it claims to be, and how it is only by taking part in das wahre Werk, in the work of world-building, that the subject can hope to successfully realize itself. Yet in that case, it can no longer withhold the answer to the question, what it effectively is. The Kantian subject is considered here in connection with the civil society and the state.
