Slavoj Žižek argues Europe's fragility may be its strength

Original: Slavoj Žižek | If You Want Peace, Prepare Europe What can Europe still represent in the disorder of the present? And wha

Philosopher Slavoj Žižek has published a new essay titled 'If You Want Peace, Prepare Europe', exploring what Europe can still represent amid present global disorder. The piece, tied to the launch of the Europa2057 initiative at the Sala della Protomoteca in Rome on 25 March 2026, suggests Europe's political fragility could hold an as-yet unnamed resource. Readers are debating whether the argument offers a genuine new direction for European politics.

Why now: The essay coincides with the public launch of the Europa2057 project and Žižek's reputation draws wide attention to fresh writing on Europe's geopolitical role.
