Paperback. Points to the late work of Jacques Derrida, the writing by and about him in the period roughly from 1994 to 2004.

It calls into question the "fact" of Derrida's turn to politics, law, and ethics and highlights continuities throughout his oeuvre. Editor(s): Mitchell, W. J. T.; Davidson, Arnold I.
