520 |a Despite Jürgen Habermas’ famous suggestion that the violence of history might be mitigated by "the liquidation of unconditional claims," the issue of whether monotheistic religions and the metaphysical rationality they engender are indeed the hidden source of such violence remains an open one. This essay explores how Derrida with his project "deconstruction" sought to deal in a manner unique to philosophy with the question of the relationship between violence, the unconditional, and the ontological. It proposes that Derrida’s "Jew-Greek" dilemma, which encapsulates the problem of the "violence" of metaphysics, is resolved through Levinas’ project of disrupting Husserlian phenomenology with an alterity that is not simply a heteron that disintermediates the logic of predication, but one that challenges what is normally meant by philosophy itself.
