L’Avenir de l’Europe, un projet qui a réconcilié Habermas avec Derrida

Abstract EN

This article examines the complex relationship between Habermas and Derrida by shedding light on the shift from a less pleasant interaction in the 1980s to a rather friendly and collaborative affiliation later in an attempt to highlight comparable areas of interest as well as evaluate areas of convergence among the two great minds.

In this paper I try to reveal a deep assessment of the two philosophers’ stances politics which could be the reason behind their reconciliation and their collaboration, as they share comparable fundamentals, and inspect the fruit of that effort, which achieved not only political reform but legal in the shape of a Reform of International Law.
