Derrida and Alienation -- Alienation and Presence: A Historical Sketch -- Difference and Alienation in Hegel -- Determinability and Objectification in Marx -- Heidegger’s Deconstruction of Ontological Alienation -- Deconstructive De-alienation.

Articulates the Hegelian-Marxist theory of alienation in the light of Derrida’s deconstruction of the metaphysics of presence. Simon Skempton aims to demonstrate in what way Derridian deconstruction can itself be said to be a critique of alienation. In so doing, he argues that the acceptance of Derrida’s deconstructive concepts does not necessarily entail the acceptance of his interpretations of Hegel and Marx. In this way the book proposes radical reinterpretations, not only of Hegel and Marx, but of Derridian deconstruction itself. The critique of the notions of alienation and de-alienation is a key componentof Derridian deconstruction that has been largely neglected by scholars to date. This important new study puts forward a unique and original argument that Derridiandeconstruction can itself provide the basis for a rethinking of the concept of alienation, a concept that has received little serious philosophically engaged attention for several decades..
