| Sumari: | The book explores the late phase of Jacques Derrida's work. While its earliest phase enjoyed relative popularity among translators and commentators in Poland, the reception of the philosopher's works emerging in the last fifteen years of his activity was sporadic until recently. It is then, however, that a fundamental shift of emphasis takes place in Derrida's thought, which is usually labelled ‘the ethical-political turn of deconstruction’. The accentuation of deconstruction's emancipatory tendencies is then accompanied by the prominence of its theological heritage, inspired by the tradition of unorthodox Judaism. Deconstruction as a philosophical paraphrase of Messianic themes turns out to be a reflection on the ‘new Enlightenment’, and thus reveals its enormous and still untapped political-ethical potential. Contrary to widespread claims about the ‘death of deconstruction’, it is in Derrida's thought that we find the most inspiring and astonishingly timely attempts to rethink such phenomena as ‘capitalism’, ‘democracy’, ‘justice’ and ‘violence’. |
