The striking parallels between Derrida's deconstruction and certain
strategies eschewing oppositional hierarchies in Asian thought,
especially in Buddhism and Daoism, have attracted much attention
from scholars of both Western and Asian philosophy. This book
contributes to this discussion by focusing on the ethical dimension
and function of deconstruction in Asian thought.
Examining different traditions and schools of Asian thought,
including Indian Buddhism, Zen, other schools of East Asian
Buddhism, the Kyoto School, and Daoism, the contributors explore
the central theme from different contexts and different angles.
Insights and notions from the contemporary discussion of Derridean
deconstruction and its ethic or Derridean-Levinasian ethic as a
paradigm for comparison or interpretation are used as a
framework.
Furthering our understanding of the relationship between
deconstruction and the ethical in Asian traditions, this book also
enriches the contemporary ethical discourse from a global
perspective by bridging Asia and the West.
