An hypothesis about the tragic sense of four thoughts in the philosophy of Slavoj Žižek: subject, ideology, capitalism and democracy. These are some of the transversal arguments in the polyhedral work of the famous Slovenian philosopher and are essential for a minimum overall understanding of his thinking. To reinforce and illustrate this tragic hypothesis of Žižek's background, a review of his recent work Antigone (2016). A version with a clear ethical - political intentionality of the tragedy of Sophocles that confirms that tragic current that underlies and unifies to a certain extent the philosophical project of Žižek.
