Žižek posits that language, while often seen as a medium for peaceful communication, can also perpetuate violence by creating divisions between consent and coercion. He argues that anti-Semitism exemplifies this dynamic, as the image of the "Jew" constructed through language influences both the perception of Jews and their self-identity. The article critiques Žižek's conflation of the "real Jew" and the anti-Semitic figure, suggesting that his analysis reveals the complexities and dangers inherent in language and identity, particularly in the context of racism and ideological violence. The discussion highlights the challenges of defining Jewish identity and the implications of language in shaping societal perceptions and prejudices. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of CR: The New Centennial Review is the property of Michigan State University Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
