Financial markets play a huge role in society but theoretical
reflections on what constitutes these markets are scarce. Drawing
on sources in philosophy, finance, the history of modern
mathematics, sociology and anthropology, Abstract Market Theory
elaborates a new philosophy of the market in order to redress this
gap between reality and theory.
Jacques Derrida continues to be the world's single most influential
philosophical and literary theorist. He is also one of the most
controversial and most complex. His own works and critical studies
of his work proliferate, but where can a student, utterly new to
the work of Derrida, start? Understanding Derrida is written as an
introduction to the full range of Derrida's key ideas and
influences. It brings together the world's leading authorities on
Derrida, each writing a short, accessible essay on one central
aspect of his work. Framed by a clear introduction and a complete
bibliography of Derrida's publications in English, the essays
systematically analyze one aspect of Derrida's work, each essay
including a quick summary of Derrida's books which have addressed
this theme, guiding the student towards a direct engagement with
Derrida's texts. The essays cover language, metaphysics, the
subject, politics, ethics, the decision, translation, religion,
psychoanalysis, literature, art, and Derrida's seminal relationship
to other philosophers, namely Husserl, Heidegger, Levinas, Hegel
and Nietzsche.
