Simon Critchley's first book, 'The Ethics of Deconstruction', was originally published to great acclaim in 1992. It was the first book to argue for the ethical turn in Derrida's work and to show as powerfully as possible how deconstruction has persuasive ethical consequences that are vital to our thinking through of questions of politics and democracy. This new edition contains three new appendixes and a new preface where Critchley reflects upon the origins, motivation and reception of 'The Ethics of Deconstruction'.

It is now widely accepted that The Ethics of Deconstruction was the first book to argue for the ethical turn in Derrida's work and to show as powerfully as possible how deconstruction has persuasive ethical consequences that were vital to our thinking through of questions of politics and democracy. Now reissued with three new appendices which restate as well as reflect upon and deepen the book's arguments, The Ethics of Deconstruction is undoubtedly the standard work in the field.

Although this book is a study of the work of Emmanuel Levinas and Jacques Derrida, it would be mistaken to refer to it as a comparison. The book develops a framework which might aide the reader of Levinas and Derrida in determining the scope and significance of their respective projects as far as a discourse of the sacred is concerned. It does so by emphasizing their status as philosophers whose thought correlates but does not compare. Within this correlation, without obscuring either their differences or similarities, we can see a common framework that consists of the following elements. First, it is clear from what and how Derrida and Levinas have written that the general import of their work lies in the area of ethics. However, in many ways it would be justifiable to say that their work is not about ethics at all. Neither of them proposes a moral theory; neither is interested in discussing the question of values vs. social norms, duty vs. virtue and other issues that might pertain to the area of ethics. To be sure, these issues do come up in their work, yet they are treated in a peculiarly different way. For Derrida and Levinas, ethics is not so much an inquiry into the problems of right and wrong but an inquiry into the problem of the ethical constitutedness of human beings.

What would political thought look like without the foundation of ethics? Drawing on the work of Emmanuel Levinas, Jacques Derrida and Jean-Luc Nancy, Madeleine Fagan puts forward a radical and far-reaching refusal of foundational ethics. Instead, she proposes an account of the inseparability of ethics and politics. The 'ethical' should not be understood as a label; it does not mean 'good' or 'right', it is not an evaluation or guide. Rather, both the ethical and the political are descriptions of the context in which we find ourselves. The book highlights the necessity of a practice-based rethinking of the relationship between ethics and politics and so denaturalises a series of commonplaces about poststructuralist ethics.

This original contribution to the ethical and political significance of philosophy addresses a number of major themes—identity, violence, the erotic, freedom, responsibility, religious belief, globalization—and critically engages with the work of Kierkegaard, Wittgenstein, Heidegger, Derrida, and Levinas. It promotes a unique blend of deconstructive critique and a certain English skepticism, leading to the affirmation of a negative capability—a patience and vigilance in the face of both human folly and philosophy's own homegrown pathologies. The author argues for the extension of our sense of openness and responsibility to animal life, and indeed life in general, and not just to the human.

This text is a reply to some of the more doctrinaire beliefs that pass for "radical" thinking. For the most part, Norris argues, these ideas are based on a false understanding of crucial episodes in their own pre-history.

This book is an unusually readable and lucid account of the development of Derrida's work, from his early writings on phenomenology and structuralism to his most recent interventions in debates on psychoanalysis, ethics and politics. Christina Howells gives a clear explanation of many of the key terms of deconstruction - including différance, trace, supplement and logocentrism - and shows how they function in Derrida's writing. She explores his critique of the notion of self-presence through his engagement with Husserl, and his critique of humanist conceptions of the subject through an account of his ambivalent and evolving relationship to the philosophy of Sartre. The question of the relationship between philosophy and literature is examined through an analysis of the texts of the 1970s, and in particular Glas, where Derrida confronts Hegel's totalizing dialectics with the fragmentary and iconoclastic writings of Jean Genet. The author addresses directly the vexed questions of the extreme difficulty of Derrida's own writing and of the passionate hostility it arouses in philosophers as diverse as Searle and Habermas. She argues that deconstruction is a vital stimulus to vigilance in both the ethical and political spheres, contributing significantly to debate on issues such as democracy, the legacy of Marxism, responsibility, and the relationship between law and justice. Comprehensive, cogently argued and up to date, this book will be an invaluable text for students and scholars alike.

In this compelling and timely treatise, cultural theorist and educator Peter Trifonas puts forth the first book-length study of Jacques Derrida's 'educational texts: ' that is, those writings most explicitly concerned with the ethics and politics of the historico-philosophical structures constituting the scene of teaching. The text examines how deconstruction allows us to re-think the socio-historical and ethico-philosophical aspects of pedagogical practices and policies, including pedagogical theories that have had direct bearing on the ethical and cultural ideals forming the reason of Western educational systems and the exclusion of its 'Others.

Corporations, and the environments in which they operate, are complex, with changing multiple dimensions, and an inherent capacity to evolve qualitatively. A central premise of this study is that a postmodern reading of ethics represents an expression of, and an engagement with, the ethical complexities that define the business landscape. In particular, the deconstructive philosophy of Jacques Derrida offers a non-trivial reading of a complex notion of ethics, and thereby helps us to develop the skills necessary to critique and intervene in our practices, and to develop robust strategies for living in the absence of prescriptive ethical frameworks. Although a central premise of this study is that substantive ethical claims can only be generated within a given context, the study nevertheless presents readers with a meta-position that illustrates the type of considerations that should inform ethical reflection from a complexity perspective. In order to illustrate the value that this meta-position holds for business ethics, these considerations are explored in terms of the implications that they hold for our understanding of corporate social responsibility, for the practice of responsible management and leadership practices, and for teaching business ethics.

This study is devoted to the often questioned normative substance of Jaques Derrida`s deconstruction in light of recurrent accusations of moral relativism or outright nihilism. The author develops an account of deconstruction ethically oriented toward the other in contradistinction against the fundamental ontology of Martin Heidegger. The latter is shown to contain merely an ethical orientation toward the own self and is therefore judged to be blind for the ethical consequences of one`s own conduct for others. Such self-aggrandisement is criticised by an exegesis of certain key texts of Derrida which are read against the backdrop of the for this purpose important philosophy of Emmanuel Lévinas. The ensuing critique has as its goal less the wholesale dismissal of Heidegger than a transcendence which extends his thought by an attentiveness to the ethical significance of the other. The risk of not regarding the other worthy of ethical consideration is exemplified by reference to the case of Ernesto Laclau, whose theory of hegemony exhibits a deconstruction transferred to the realm of political analysis and action, yet which is void of any normative principle. Thus is threatened a regression to the ethical solipsism of Heidegger which indeed is prone to allegations of moral relativism by right and which should be countered by a deconstruction mindful of its own intellectuel heritage. Der vorliegende Band widmet sich der Frage nach dem normativen Gehalt der Dekonstruktion nach Jaques Derrida angesichts fortbestehender Anwürfe des Nihilismus. Hierzu zeichnet der Verfasser vor dem Hintergrund der bewussten Auseinandersetzung mit und in Absetzung von der Fundamentalontologie Martin Heideggers mit Nachdruck ein Bild der ethischen am Anderen orientierten Dekonstruktion. Heidegger wird eine ethische Orientierung lediglich am Selbst nachgewiesen und somit eine Blindheit für die ethischen Auswirkungen eigenen Handelns für Andere. Diese effektive Selbstüberhöhung wird mithilfe der Exegese bestimmter Schlüsseltexte Derridas unter Hinzunahme des hierfür so wichtigen Denkens Emmanuel Lèvinas' einer Kritik unterzogen, die sich zum Ziel setzt weniger Heidegger`s Seinsanalytik zu verwerfen, sondern diese zu überschreiten, indem sie um die Aufmerksamkeit für die ethische Wertigkeit des Anderen erweitert wird. Dieser Band schließt mit einer Betrachtung der sehr gegenwärtigen Hegemonietheorie Ernesto Laclaus ab, um das Risiko zu demonstrieren, welches eine in die politische Analyse und Aktion übertragene Dekonstruktion birgt, die sich gegen die normativen Einsichten Derridas und Lévinas' sperrt und somit einen Rückschritt zum ethischen Solipsismus Heideggers darstellt. Dieser steht berechtigterweise in der Kritik eines moralischen Relativismus und sollte von einer Dekonstruktion abgelöst werden, die ihre eigenen intellektuellen Wurzeln nicht vergessen hat.
