This lecture is brilliant (first 1 hour is the meat and potatoes). Zizek philosophises with humor and is as much fun as some of the better stand up comedians.

Former Deputy Chief of LAPD endorses legalization. Why is it we can only publicly say that the "drug war" has failed after we retire? I'm not throwing stones, though I advocated decriminalization in the classroom and in one-on-one conversations, I also played some politics in the Cities where I was Chief. Dwight Waldo would have argued that we had a duty to speak out--what do you think?

I don't think any man hitting a women is very right, but when you are a police officer and even the CHIEF of police you are under the scope even more. How are you expected to arrest people who do this, when you your self are doing this. As an officer you held to higher standard and should never cross the line. This guys career is over.

New Institutionalism predicts that the rules we make cause predictable reactions by individuals and groups. Whenever we seek to criminalize something, there are always unintended consequences. For every individual and organizational response operating in the shadow of the law, we have similar reactions as the anti-thesis to these institutional rules. We saw this same cartelization in the U.S. during Prohibition and now in Mexico.
