Замислувајки го лицето на „Реалното“: Некои размисли за војната и насилството
Imagining the Face of the “Real”: Some Considerations about War and Violence

Summary/Abstract: To a mind - and body - born and grown up in the “postmodern condition”, and brought up according to the best traditions of the postmodern thought, the experience of war - and the violence pertaining (specifically) to it - calls for (or simply generates) some disturbing restructurings of the ways of thought. In my personal experience, what has been - in this sense - the most striking effect of the war that has been ailling Macedonia for almost half a year already, can be reduced to the shock by the necessitating powers of the Real (of violence) over the “realms of the Imaginary”. (Under the designation of “the realms of the Imaginary” I subscribe also the notions of the “symbolic”, “sign”, “semantic”, “fiction” - in psychoanalytic terms, all pertaining to the “signifying chain”.)
