The idea for "Philosophy in a Time of Terror" was born hours after
the attacks on 9/11 and was realized just weeks later when Giovanna
Borradori sat down with Jurgen Habermas and Jacques Derrida in New
York City, in separate interviews, to evaluate the significance of
the most destructive terrorist act ever perpetrated. This book
marks an unprecedented encounter between two of the most
influential thinkers of our age as here, for the first time,
Habermas and Derrida overcome their mutual antagonism and agree to
appear side by side. As the two philosophers disassemble and
reassemble what we think we know about terrorism, they break from
the familiar social and political rhetoric increasingly polarized
between good and evil. In this process, we watch two of the
greatest intellects of the century at work.
