Community Without Unity: A Politics of Derridian Extravagance

William Corlett

Now available in paperback with a new preface by the author, this award-winning book breaks new ground by challenging traditional concepts of community in political theory. William Corlett brings the diverse (and sometimes contradictory) work of Foucault and Derrida to bear on the thought of Pocock, Burke, Lincoln, and McIntyre, among others, to move beyond the conventional dichotomy of “individual vs. community,” arguing instead that community is best advanced within a politics of difference.
