Future(s) of Philosophy: The Marginal Thinking of Jacques Derrida

By Gary John Percesepe

What does Jacques Derrida mean to philosophy? Is his marginalization in the philosophic community (on grounds of lack of seriousness ) itself a philosophic issue? How shall we understand Derrida's distancing of himself from the deconstruction industry? Does Derrida/deconstruction have a philosophical future? Asked against the background of such thinkers as de Saussure, Peirce, Nietzsche, Adorno, Mann, Habermas and Foucault, these are the insistent questions that Future(s) of Philosophy: The Marginal Thinking of Jacques Derrida raises.
