Slavoj Žižek is perhaps the most famous philosopher today, largely because his thinking is impossible to pigeonhole, not only because of the overwhelming multitude of disciplines and cultural references it encompasses and connects, but also because of the originality and irreverence with which Often does. In Event, Žižek takes a concept that we take for granted, the daily happenings of millions of events, situations, thoughts, emotions, etc., and shows us that the fact that something happens, for example the world, is not so trivial or Evident as it may seem to us, nor is it the order from which it is accommodated and ordered.

With its usual ability to turn clear and deep-rooted ideas into our culture - for example, Lars von Trier's Melancholy shows that the idea of ​​the end of the world can be liberating and creative, or that people in State of absolute autism, far from representing a zero state of thought, represent a state of pure thought, that by being enclosed in themselves do not even have something specific to think about -, Žižek points out that everything happens is random , And that therefore all kinds of order is a specific configuration, just as arbitrary as any other, with no value in itself, rather than as a palliative to try to guide and give meaning to the lives of the billions of people living Under his control.
