Law, Justice, and Violence

According to Jacques Derrida (1930-2004), the assertion of the concept of justice as a conformity with the law must be deconstructed. Derrida shows the reason why the law must be deconstructed. According to him, the law is constructed at the moment of its establishment. Aside of this, our concept of law is affected by the dynamics of human life. The law is for humans, therefore, the law can be deconstructed for the reoccurrence of a profound meaning of justice.
