Summary:
Celebrated by some, abused by others, Derrida is the most discussed philosopher at the end of this century. Derrida stands clear in his opposition to the "end of history," proposed by the American philosopher Francis Fukuyama. He conjures up the spectres of Marx, in a passionate defense of democracy as a vigilant and never-ending quest.
