Enlightenment past and to come
The work of philosopher Jacques Derrida, who died on 9 October, was anchored in current affairs. That is why he was invited to Le Monde diplomatique’s
50th anniversary celebrations in May, one of his last public engagements. This is an edited extract from his speech.

One of Jacques Derrida's last public speeches before he died...

He died on the anniversary of Che Guevara's death. Very interesting.

"That is my dream. I am grateful to all those who help me to dream it; not only to dream, as Ramonet says, that another world is possible, but to
muster the strength to do all that is needed to make it possible. This dream is shared by billions of men and women all over the world. Some day,
though the work may be long and painful, a new world will be born."

While ever there is men and women who share similar beleifs, and strive to do everything that is possible... The human race has some hope yet...
