Futures by Richard Rand

In this text, seven eminent authors, all known for their work in deconstruction, address the millennial issue of our futures, promises, prophecies, projects and possibilities including the possibility that there may be no future at all.
"This book, which includes a major piece by Derrida, may serve as a switching station, a relay that amplifies the legacy of deconstruction, demonstrating its continuing vitality and even more its necessary relevance for the questions of politics and ethics that face us in the new century" -- Gregory L. Ulmer * University of Florida *
"At its best moments. . . . this collection. . . . is no longer a representation of a label or a proper name, but a weave of exceedingly probing questions that traverses labels, legacies and proper names in an unexpected pattern." -- Modern Language Notes
Richard Rand is Associate Professor of English at the University of Alabama (Tuscaloosa). He has translated texts by Derrida and is the editor of Logomachia: The Conflict of the Faculties.
