Description

Jacques Derrida: Law as Absolute Hospitality offers a thorough exploration of Derrida's distinctive perspective on law and justice through meticulous textual analysis. Author Jacques de Ville demonstrates how Derrida's deconstruction of the metaphysics of presence, grounded in his engagement with foundational thinkers including Husserl, Levinas, Freud and Heidegger, unlocks the philosophical underpinnings of his complex works on law and justice. By examining key texts such as To Speculate - on Freud, Adieu, Declarations of Independence, Before the Law and Cogito and the History of Madness, this book clarifies Derrida's elusive theoretical contributions to legal philosophy. Published by Routledge as part of the Nomikoi: Critical Legal Thinkers series, this volume serves as an essential reference for scholars, students and practitioners seeking to understand how deconstruction fundamentally reshapes contemporary thinking about law, justice and hospitality.
