The dialectic of the Law and thereby the need to transgress it.

 
There are myriad of thinkers stuck in the dialectic of the law and its transgression; of the prohibitive law as generating the transgressive desire,which forces them to the debilitating perverse conclusion that one has to install prohibitions in order to be able to enjoy their violation—a clearly unworkable pragmatic paradox.
(And, incidentally, as Slavo Zizek points out, was not this dialectic fully explored by Saint Paul in Romans, in the famous passage on the relationship between Law and sin, on how Law engenders sin, that is,the desire to transgress it?
Yet it is the LAW which intervenes in the homogeneous stability of our pleasure-oriented life as the shattering force of absolute destabilizing heterogeneity. But then we have the refreshing breath of Chesterton, (The Joy Of Orthodoxy) who argues that Orthodoxy itself is the highest subversion; serving the Law is the highest adventure, for the absolute excess is that of the Law itself.
