Débat Laruelle-Derrida (en anglais) : Controversy over the Possibility

Description

Jacques Derrida and François Laruelle JD: Mines is not an easy task. After what youve just heard, you can see the risk I took in speaking of François Laruelles ‘polemos. You spoke in the name of a certain peace. Yet I have to admit that, with regard to polemos and terror, there were moments while I was listening to your description of philosophical terror as transcendentally constitutive of philosophy, etc., when I was sometimes tempted to see in your own description a rigorous analysis of what you were in fact doing here. I say sometimes, because I did not succumb to the temptation. I shall nevertheless attempt to say something else. I am obliged here to play devils advocate.
