This is an excellent collection with notable scholars like Simon Critchley, Christopher Norris, Jonathan Culler mixing it with younger and subject specialist scholars to retherorize language and truth, literary studies, history, third-wave feminism, French studies, sociology, political science, spatial studies as well as “the institutional form of thinking” (Critchley), “deconstruction of the university” and the “future of the humanities”. If there was one book to read on the university this year, it would have to be Derrida and the Future of the Liberal Arts.
