- Summary:
- For Jacques Derrida, the notions and experiences of 'community,' 'living,' and 'together' never ceased to harbour radical, in fact infinite interrogations. In this volume, the paradoxes, impossibilities, and singular chances that haunt the necessity of 'living together' are evoked in Derrida's essay 'Avowing--The Impossible' around which the collection is gathered.
