Deconstruction, justice and the question of education

Abstract

This article focuses on the ethical-political dimensions of Jacques Derrida's post-modern philosophy of Deconstructionism. Its aim is to clarify the connection between Deconstructionism and justice which has been asserted by Derrida. The article will examine how Derrida deconstructs the concept of justice and to what extent he equates the very procedure of Deconstructionism with justice. It will conclude with a consideration of the relationship between Deconstructionism, justice and education. (DIPF/Orig.)
