It is divided into two parts. The first part begins with a critical analysis of Husserl's theory of intersubjectivity (Chapter 1). Chapter 2 reconstructs the problematic of communication in terms of Derrida's notion of the ""postal principle."" The first part concludes with an existential-ontological interpretation of communication as an absolute mediation between man and world. In the second part, an exposition of deconstruction is first introduced by way of a comparative analysis of Heidegger and Derrida (Chapter 4). The final Chapter demonstrates how and why the ""postal principle"" which establishes the condition of possibility of communication comes to undermine itself. The dissertation concludes by defending the ""positive"" contribution of the Derridean practice to critical communication theories." Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T12:46:45Z (GMT).
