This book, a critique and overview of contemporary post-structuralist theory, explores the Kantian and phenomenological background of Derrida, Deleuze, Foucault and Irigaray, and raises some key questions and issues in critical theory. Is it still possible to sustain a transcendental critical project? How do such projects fare in the current terrain of cultural studies and anti-representationalism? The book contributes to ethical and critical theory; situates poststructuralism in its philosophical background and in the sustained problematic of the enlightenment; and offers a critique of various appeals made to a would-be post-metaphysical or post-human culture.
