Informationen zum Autor Jacques Derrida is Professor at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociale in Paris. He is the author of a range of extraordinarily influential works including Dissemination, also available in the Athlone Contemporary European Thinkers series. Klappentext This new book reflects Derrida's latest views on the role of education and international organizations in an era of globalization. In this book, Derrida develops a notion of the global citizen that is uniquely post-Kantian. He looks especially at the changing role of UNESCO and similar organizations at a time when individual and national identities, knowledge and commerce, and human rights all are brought to world attention in new ways than they have been in the past. Following Derrida's writings on these issues, prominent scholars engage in a dialogue with him on his approach to understanding the ethics of international institutions and education today.
