25 years after the publication of Derrida's Politics of Friendship (Politiques de l'amiti, 1994), this edited collection gathers 23 critical chapters that revisit this underappreciated text. Engaging closely with Derrida's text, the contributors analyse, extend and critique the work. They reconsider the place this book occupies in Derrida's political philosophy and its potential for contemporary politics, when the promises and perils of political friendship have reappeared.

Reviews for Derrida'S Politics of Friendship: Amity and Enmity

"""The Politics of Friendship has never been more relevant at a time when being a friend seems undermined by fragmentation and a fantasy of individualism. The editors have brought together some of the most important Derrida scholars in this volume to develop critical discussions of this rich text and to remind us why we must return to it again and again."" -Drucilla Cornell, Emeritus Professor, Rutgers University"
