The book provides a systematic introduction to René Girard's mimetic theory, focusing on its three core concepts: mimetic desire, the scapegoat mechanism, and the Biblical "difference." It utilizes examples from literature and philosophy to illustrate these ideas, while situating the theory within contemporary cultural and political discussions, including topics like religion and modernity, terrorism, the death penalty, and gender issues. This exploration highlights the relevance of Girard's insights in understanding current societal challenges.
