'Positions' brings together three interviews with Jacques Derrida, outlining key terms and themes of his work. The interview format allows for a looser, more accessible exploration of the key Derridean themes of Marxism, psychoanalysis and linguistics.
As such, 'Positions' is the best possible introduction not only to two of Derrida's most influential works, 'Writing And Difference' and 'Dissemination', but also, more generally, to his seminal work on deconstruction.
This new edition of the book includes an extensive essay by Christopher Norris, setting these key early interviews in the context of the full trajectory of Derrida's thought.
