This new book reflects Derrida's latest views on the role of education and international organizations in an era of globalization. In this book, Derrida develops a notion of the global citizen that is uniquely post-Kantian. He looks especially at the changing role of UNESCO and similar organizations at a time when individual and national identities, knowledge and commerce, and human rights all are brought to world attention in new ways than they have been in the past. Following Derrida's writings on these issues, prominent scholars engage in a dialogue with him on his approach to understanding the ethics of international institutions and education today.
Jacques Derrida, professor of philosophy at the L' Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, CollZge de France, Paris, is the author of many influential books, including Writing and Difference and Dissemination. Peter Pericles Trifonas teaches in the Center for Social Justice and Cultural Studies at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto.
