A “subject” is someone who adheres to the rules and ideals governing language, communication and exchange (“the symbolic order”) without being fully conscious of them. Understanding ideology By ideology Žižek refers to the way in which the fiction of self-identity is constructed through the structure of language and, more widely, the symbolic order.
