Derrida and Technology: Life, Politics, and Religion[electronic resource] /by Björn Sjöstrand. - 1st ed. 2021. - IX, 200 p.online resource.

Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2. The Philosophy of Technology Tradition -- Chapter 3. Derrida and the Phenomenology of Technology -- Chapter 4. Technology and Time as Event -- Chapter 5. Humanity’s Technicity -- Chapter 6. Ethics and Technology -- Chapter 7. Politics and Technology -- Chapter 8. Religion and Technology -- Chapter 9. Conclusion.

This book is the first monograph that takes a comprehensive approach to Jacques Derrida as a philosopher of technology. It refines and complements his mainstream image as a philosopher of language and deconstructionist of classical literary and philosophical texts. This volume outlines the key features of Derrida’s alternative philosophy of technology, a philosophy which Sjöstrand argues, avoids the problems associated with, on the one hand, a Heideggerian orientation, which completely separates thinking and technology and, on the other, an empirically oriented ”post-phenomenology” that can be said to be hegemonic within the field today. Based on a sustained interpretation of Derrida, and a robust, coherent philosophy of technology, a phenomenology of technology is developed that, in a radical way, extends the concept of technology to cover the entire field of phenomenology. This places the technological not in opposition to humanity, but rather always already in close proximity to man and, consequently, to life, ethics, politics, democracy and religion. Strikingly, this important aspect of Derrida’s thinking is only rarely analyzed or discussed by his many exegetes. This text appeals to graduates and researchers working on Derrida, phenomenology, and the philosophy of technology.
