Informationen zum Autor Chantal Mouffe is a Senior Research Fellow at acknowledgement Centre for the Study of Democracy at the University of Westminster. Klappentext Derridean deconstruction and Rortian pragmatism are both accused by their enemies of undermining our ideas of truth and reason, but do their ideas lead to intellectual and political chaos? Both are committed to the democratic project but they reject the necessary link between universalism, rationalism and modern democracy and seek to clarify what is at stake intellectually and politically. Zusammenfassung This volume takes the form of a debate between Jacques Derrida, the leading exponent of deconstruction, and Richard Rorty, the pragmatist philosopher and literary theorist, in which the two schools of thought are brought into critical confrontation with one another.
