Jaques Derrida, El Ex-Centrico

Jacques Derrida's heterodox thought, phantasmagorically, questions the current imaginaries of globalization and promises to deconstruct what remains of our certainties and our doubts. Phenomena such as post-Marxism, infrapolitics, the posthuman, the migration crisis, decolonial projects, virtuality, and post-hegemony project, from his work, a range of problems that demand the strengthening of critical thinking. In this detailed study, Mabel Moraña offers a different perspective on these topics and returns to the philosopher's incisive ideas on universalism, psychoanalysis, literature, translation, border knowledge, Amazonian thought, language, mourning, the university, humanism, and democracy. She thus opens a dialogue with thinkers from diverse cultural contexts that decenters the Derrida repertoire and stimulates debates from peripheral perspectives capable of challenging globalizing totalization.
