Derrida and Democracy

The deconstructionist philosophy is a good example to show how systematic philosophy corresponds with democracy. Through criticizing egocentrism and enmity to others، deconstructionism is after relating the philosophical principles with the principle of acceptance of others and democracy. On the other hand Derrida''s discussion of socio-political democracy like democracy of the future and the challenges democracy faces، also have its roots in his philosophical thinking. So Democracy and deconstructionism are two sides of the same coin and it is not possible to understand one without understanding the other. This is a strong relation and Derrida''s idea about philosophy and politics is based on it. The democracy of future as the result of this relation is the mirror of Derridean philosophy and politics. The relation between philosophy and deconstructionist democracy and their interaction and effects on each other are among the main concerns of this paper.
