BALCARCE, Gabriela. Democracy To Come in Derridean Philosophy: Between Sovereignty and Unconditionality. arete [online]. 2015, vol.27, n.1, pp.29-44. ISSN 1016-913X.

This article aims to perform a reading of the Derridean notion of "democracy to come". Taking this notion as a starting point, the author makes a deep reading of the problems of democracy with regard to its foundation and concept. Our hypothesis is that "democracy to come" allows Derrida to put democracy -as a resistance to any totalizing closure in the name of the common and the same- into an abyss. At the same time, we’ll interpret this notion considering its links with sovereignty and unconditionality, understanding the latter as an infinite openness to otherness.

Palabras clave : democracy to come; sovereignty; otherness; Derrida; unconditionality.
