- W2891697274 abstract "This work offers a close reading and analysis of Derrida’s 1989 essay “Biodegradables,” which contains some of Derrida’s most explicit and developed reflections on ecology and the environment, as well as on the related themes of life, survival, waste, biodegradability, remains, and what will remain—or not—after the end. A rather strange “artefact” within the Derridean corpus, “Biodegradables” is, despite its length (some sixty pages), unknown to most readers of Derrida and rarely commented on even by those who know his work well. The aim of this work is thus, in part, to save this important essay from the forgetting or the biodegradation to which it has been consigned in the secondary literature. But it is also, and more importantly, to underscore a thinking of the relationship between ecology and war—and particularly nuclear war—that can be heard haunting the essay from beginning to end. Given current concerns about the proliferation of nuclear weapons and the containment of nuclear waste, it is high time, I argue, that Derrida’s reflections about these issues be retrieved from our cultural landfill and brought back into contemporary environmental theory" @default.
