Produktbeschreibung

Ethics in Deconstruction is vital reading for anyone interested in Derrida and the ethical implications of deconstruction broadly defined. It offers a comprehensive set of essays on the ethics of deconstruction and deconstruction as an ethical enterprise. Derrida is the main focus, but essays also look at Sextus Empiricus, Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Arendt, Lévinas, Lyotard, Deleuze, and others. This volume broadly defines ethics to include law, justice, politics, religion, and practical reason. The essays explore topics including biopolitics, hospitality, speech and language, consciousness and affection, animality, democracy, sovereignty, nationality and nationalism, Enlightenment, poetics, responsibility, economics, decision theory, promises, the institution of ethics, alterity, and otherness. An editor's introduction provides a unifying oversight of the multiplicity of topics, and an editor's afterthought takes the discussion forward with regard to the status of moral law. This volume's contents are distinctive in their wide-ranging coverage of deconstruction, including its boundaries and its others. The reader's assumptions about deconstruction, ethics, and their contexts will be challenged and renewed. This book is essential reading for anyone concerned with the philosophy of Derrida and the ethical possibilities of deconstruction in many forms across themes and disciplines. It was originally published as a special issue of Angelaki.
