Many current developments in American academic life -
multiculturalism, rhetoric and hermeneutics, and deconstruction -
have been inspired by the ideas of European philosophers such as
Foucault, Derrida, Deleuze and Lyotard. In Europe the influence of
these philosophers is restricted to a small coterie and their ideas
have contributed to none of the wide-ranging social and
institutional changes recently witnessed in some segments of
American academia. Contributions are included by specialists on
both sides of the doctrinal and ideological divide, so as to
present a serious confrontation between those who see the influence
of Derrida and others as benign or insignificant and those who
perceive it as corrosive in its effects on academic standards in
the US.
