Deconstruction
in a Nutshell : A Conversation With Jacques Derrida (Perspectives in Continental
Philosophy) -- Jacques Derrida, John D. Caputo (Editor); Responding
to questions put to him at a Roundtable held at Villanova University in 1994,
Jacques Derrida leads the reader through an illuminating discussion of the
central themes of deconstruction. Speaking in English and extemporaneously,
Derrida takes up with unusual clarity and great eloquence such topics as the
task of philosophy, the Greeks, justice, responsibility, the gift, community,
the distinction between the messianic and the concrete messianisms, and his
interpretation of James Joyce. Derrida convincingly refutes the charges of
relativism and nihilism that are often leveled at deconstruction by its critics
and sets forth the profoundly affirmative and ethico-political thrust of his
work. The "Roundtable" is marked by the unusual clarity of Derrida's
presentation and by the deep respect for the great works of the philosophical
and literary tradition with which he characterizes his philosophical work. (The
Roundtable is annotated by John D. Caputo, the David R. Cook Professor of
Philosophy at Villanova University)
The
Architecture of Deconstruction : Derrida's Haunt -- Mark Wigley (Assistant
Professor in the School of Architecture at Princeton University); Nowhere,
Mark Wigley asserts, are the stakes higher for deconstruction than in
architecture -- architecture is the Achilles' heel of deconstructive
discourse, the point of vulnerability upon which all of its arguments depend.
By locating the architecture already hidden within deconstructive discourse,
Wigley opens up more radical possibilities for both architecture and
deconstruction. He tracks the tacit argument about architecture embedded within
Jacques Derrida's discourse, a curious line of argument that passes through each
of the philosopher's texts, provocatively turning Derrida's reading strategy
back on his texts to expose the architectural dimension of their central notions
like law, economy, writing, place, domestication, translation, spacing,
laughter, and dance.
Against
Deconstruction -- John M. Ellis;"The focus of any genuinely new
piece of criticism or interpretation must be on the creative act of finding the
new, but deconstruction puts the matter the other way around: its emphasis is on
debunking the old. But aside from the fact that this program is inherently
uninteresting, it is, in fact, not at all clear that it is possible. . . . [T]he
naivet of the crowd is deconstruction's very starting point, and its subsequent
move is as much an emotional as an intellectual leap to a position that feels
different as much in the one way as the other. . . ." --From the book
"Ellis's elegant and absolutely unsentimental book can serve as a sort of
solvent in today's critical debates. Not much remains intact: binary
oppositions, `alternative logic,' texts as `play,' and `performance,' are all
subject to rigorous examination. In the process, Ellis lucidly restores
Saussurean categories (so battered and reduced in contemporary criticism) to
their original complexity. Appalled by the growth of a class of critics who
appear to risk nothing when they take on a literary text, Ellis challenges every
reader under the spell of new vocabularies to stop and think. Rarely has
scholarly exasperation been put to better or more timely use." --Caryl
Emerson, Princeton University

- Post-Modernism
and the Social Sciences : Insights, Inroads, and Intrusions -- Pauline
Marie Rosenau; Post-modernism offers a revolutionary approach to the
study of society: in questioning the validity of modern science and the
notion of objective knowledge, this movement discards history, rejects
humanism, and resists any truth claims. In this comprehensive assessment of
post-modernism, Pauline Rosenau traces its origins in the humanities and
describes how its key concepts are today being applied to, and are
restructuring, the social sciences. Serving as neither an opponent nor an
apologist for the movement, she cuts through post-modernism's often
incomprehensible jargon in order to offer all readers a lucid exposition of
its propositions. Rosenau shows how the post-modern challenge to reason and
rational organization radiates across academic fields. For example, in
psychology it questions the conscious, logical, coherent subject; in public
administration it encourages a retreat from central planning and from
reliance on specialists; in political science it calls into question the
authority of hierarchical, bureaucratic decision-making structures that
function in carefully defined spheres; in anthropology it inspires the
protection of local, primitive cultures from First World attempts to
reorganize them. In all of the social sciences, she argues, post-modernism
repudiates representative democracy and plays havoc with the very meaning of
"left-wing" and "right-wing." Rosenau also highlights
how post-modernism has inspired a new generation of social movements,
ranging from New Age sensitivities to Third World fundamentalism. In
weighing its strengths and weaknesses, the author examines two major
tendencies within post-modernism, the largely European, skeptical form and
the predominantly Anglo-North-American form, which suggests alternative
political, social, and cultural projects. She draws examples from
anthropology, economics, geography, history, international relations, law,
planning, political science, psychology, sociology, urban studies, and
women's studies, and provides a glossary of post-modern terms to assist the
uninitiated reader with special meanings not found in standard dictionaries.
