Critical Institutions: Alternative Modes of Institutionalisation in Derrida's Engagements.Cillian Ó Fathaigh - 2021 - Derrida Today 14 (2):169-185.details In this article, I consider the role of institutions in Jacques Derrida’s political engagement. In spite of Derrida’s significant involvement with political causes throughout his life, his engagements have received little sustained attention, and this is particularly true of his work with institutions. I turn to two such cases, the Collège international de philosophie and the Parlement international des écrivains and argue that these represent an alternative mode of institutionalisation. These institutions seek to destabilise other institutions as well as themselves.Looking (...) Download Export citation Bookmark 2 citations
Paradoxicality of Institution, De-Institutionalization and the Counter-Institutional: A Case Study in Classical Chinese Chan Buddhist Thought.Wang Youru - 2012 - Dao: A Journal of Comparative Philosophy 11 (1):21-37.details This article examines the issue of the paradoxicality of institution, de-institutionalization, or the counter-institutionalization in classical Chan thought by focusing on the texts of Hongzhou School.

Both problems are examples of imposing an oppositional way of thinking on the Chan masters. The (...) Download Export citation Bookmark

Transversality is thus particularly pertinent to understanding Guattari's critique of semiocapitalism and his goal of re-imagining forms of institutional subjectivisation as a way to free the unconscious from structures of lack and the desire for punishment, the very structures upon which capitalism relies for its reproduction. If there is one institution that has taken advantage of semiocapitalism's (...) Download Export citation Bookmark 1 citation
Germs of death: the problem of Genesis in Jacques Derrida.Mauro Senatore - 2018 - [Albany, NY]: SUNY Press.details An analysis of Derridas early work engaging Plato, Hegel, and the life sciences. Germs of Death explores the idea of genesis, or dissemination, in the early work of Jacques Derrida. Looking at Derridas published and unpublished work from Force and Signification in 1963 to Glas in 1974, Mauro Senatore traces the development of Derridas understanding of genesis both linguistically and biologically, and argues that this topic is an overlooked thread that draws together Derridas readings of Plato and Hegel.
