No democracy without deconstruction. Deconstruction and Democracy
evaluates and substantiates Derrida's provocative claim, assessing
the importance of this influential and controversial contemporary
philosopher's work for political thought. Derrida addressed
political questions more and more explicitly in his writing, yet
there is still confusion over the politics of deconstruction. Alex
Thomson argues for a fresh understanding of Derrida's work, which
acknowledges both the political dimension of deconstruction and its
potential contribution to our thinking about politics. The book
provides cogent analysis and exegesis of Derrida's political
writings; explores the implications for political theory and
practice of Derrida's work; and brings Derrida's work into dialogue
with other major strands of contemporary political thought.
Deconstruction and Democracy is the clearest and most detailed
engagement available with the politics of deconstruction, and is a
major contribution to scholarship on the later works of Jacques
Derrida, most notably his Politics of Friendship.
