"Radical Atheism" presents a profound new reading of the
influential French philosopher Jacques Derrida. Against the
prevalent notion that there was an ethical or religious "turn" in
Derrida's thinking, Hagglund argues that a radical atheism informs
Derrida's work from beginning to end. Proceeding from Derrida's
insight into the constitution of time, Hagglund demonstrates how
Derrida rethinks the condition of identity, ethics, religion, and
political emancipation in accordance with the logic of radical
atheism. Hagglund challenges other major interpreters of Derrida's
work and offers a compelling account of Derrida's thinking on life
and death, good and evil, self and other. Furthermore, Hagglund
does not only explicate Derrida's position but also develops his
arguments, fortifies his logic, and pursues its implications. The
result is a groundbreaking deconstruction of the perennial
philosophical themes of time and desire as well as pressing
contemporary issues of sovereignty and democracy.
