This book explores the possibilities offered by Derrida's work on
democracy for interpreting contemporary struggles over democracy in
Turkey. The relationship between democracy and justice seems of
unquestionable importance to Derrida, with democracy and justice
held in tension by deconstruction. Agnes Czajka offers a qualified
endorsement of a 'just democracy', grounded in the possibilities
opened up by reading Derrida's work on democracy together with his
work on justice. She posits that one way of imagining
democracy-to-come might be to imagine it as a 'just democracy', or
one poised at the intersection of the aporia of democracy and the
(non)imperative to justice. In the particular context of
contemporary struggles over democracy in Turkey, she also explores
what such comportment toward a just democracy (or a justice of/in
democracy) might look like in the context of that 'particular'
democracy.
