Recensioner i media

The Politics of Friendship has never been more relevant at a time when being a friend seems undermined by fragmentation and a fantasy of individualism. The editors have brought together some of the most important Derrida scholars in this volume to develop critical discussions of this rich text and to remind us why we must return to it again and again.
