초록

In an interview, Derrida made an exceptionally succinct and resolute remark on justice: "If anything is undestructable, it is justice. The law is deconstructable, fortunately: it is infinitely perfectable." Derrida's resituation of justice over-against law is a representative example of his revisionary elaboration of socio-political concepts such as gift, hospitality, forgiveness, responsibility, singularity, impossibility, ghost, democracy, and cosmopolitanism. Derrida's justice challenges the current societal structure and appraises the unforeseeable and the undecidable as an indispensable condition for the coming future. Derrida also posits literature's place less placeable, making the aesthetics of literature correspond to the experience of impossible justice. Literature is hospitable to the imaginary other world, especially offering singular examples of its otherness. As in justice, literary aesthetics helps to repoliticize the given present and to articulate a future-to-come. Derrida's justice and aesthetics make an intervention to the general progress of determinism that blocks up anything unpredictable. To the extent that they are coexistent and present themselves only in terms of uncodifiable practices and events, justice and aesthetics share a common politics that evokes the possibility of impossible future.

Abstract

In an interview, Derrida made an exceptionally succinct and resolute remark on justice: "If anything is undestructable, it is justice. The law is deconstructable, fortunately: it is infinitely perfectable." Derrida's resituation of justice over-against law is a representative example of his revisionary elaboration of socio-political concepts such as gift, hospitality, forgiveness, responsibility, singularity, impossibility, ghost, democracy, and cosmopolitanism. Derrida's justice challenges the current societal structure and appraises the unforeseeable and the undecidable as an indispensable condition for the coming future. Derrida also posits literature's place less placeable, making the aesthetics of literature correspond to the experience of impossible justice. Literature is hospitable to the imaginary other world, especially offering singular examples of its otherness. As in justice, literary aesthetics helps to repoliticize the given present and to articulate a future-to-come. Derrida's justice and aesthetics make an intervention to the general progress of determinism that blocks up anything unpredictable. To the extent that they are coexistent and present themselves only in terms of uncodifiable practices and events, justice and aesthetics share a common politics that evokes the possibility of impossible future.
