Although, we entered vaccinated phase in pandemic life, but, the cases of Covid-19 still exist now. We need social intervention to complement it. Hence, the scientific intervention to fight for pandemic is not enough. It’s also about political and social well-being. Žižek argued that Covid-19 is not just about health and scientific life. In this book, Žižek explained his opinion not just incredibly but also provocatively. Žižek want to open our eyes with the emphasis in “panic” word to realized us that people all over the world are panic because of Covid-19 changes our fundamental lives.īoth of us and Žižek can’t even predict accurately when Covid-19 over. According to Žižek in this book, panic is the first reaction in the society when people heard and should realized the existance about corona virus. Panic also described the condition about being closer to the edge. I defined panic as the reaction when we were not ready to face new things (or condition) which ongoing happened or would be face. I think the purpose is to represent the whole of book’s content. The unique thing in this book is both of Indonesian and original version highlight the “Panic” word - which the part of Pandemic word - in the title on the cover. Not only pandemic as a single phenomenon, but pandemic as an influential phenomenon which can emerge more crisis. In his book, which released on 2020, he “spiel” about pandemic and how to survive it. Did you sick talking about pandemic which felt never end? So do I hahaha… But, Slavoj Žižek made it better.
