Some persons are asserting, wrongly, that after Derrida, Law is dead. In fact, Derrida is dead, and, dead wrong about law. Derrida is often cited using two of his major articles, "Of Grammatology" and "The Force of Law." In "Of Grammatology" Derrida meanders around for the whole article and then comes to the rather irrational conclusion that "a literary essay is evil." Derrida's conclusion is absolutely absurd. Note, that his article itself is a "literary essay" and thus itself is "evil" and presumably is therefore not valid. Also, in asserting that a literary essay is "evil" Derrida is violating both Ockham's Razor and Logical Positivism. Additionally, in the "Force of Law," Derrida recommends violence and terrorism, instead of reasonable force which promotes Justice. Once again, Derrida's conclusion is absurd. Moreover, Derrida never tells his audience what " linguistic deconstruction" is, and how it might be used. Derrida would have been better off to try logical deconstruction in order to see if legal texts involve sophistry. Derrida's work is marginal at best, and disinformation at worst. Derrida is trashed. Try something else.
