Includes bibliographical references and index.
Chapter Introduction: Deconstruction After 9/11 -- chapter 1 Wars and Rumours of Wars -- chapter 2 The Eternal Battle for the Domination of the World, or, Forget Kosovo -- chapter 3 Tele-Techno-Theology -- chapter 4 Extraordinary Rendition: Derrida and Vietnam -- chapter 5 Derrida and Policy: Is Deconstruction Really a Social Science? -- chapter 6 Spectres of Poujade: Naomi Klein and the New International -- chapter 7 Promises, Promises (This Is Also Why.) -- chapter 8 Hungary in Deconstruction -- chapter 9 Enosis, or, 'The Sovereignty of Cyprus' -- chapter 10 'The Last Jewish Intellectual': Edward Said and the Deconstruction of Palestine.
In this book Martin McQuillan brings Derrida's writing into the immediate vicinity of geo-politics today, from the Kosovan conflict to the war in Iraq. The chapters in this book follow both Derrida's writing since Specters of Marx and the present political scene through the former Yogoslavia and Afghanistan to Palestine and Baghdad. His 'textual activism' is as impatient with the universal gestures of philosophy as it is with the complacency and reductionism of policy-makers and activists alike. This work records a response to the war on thinking that has marked western discours.
