Features: This book adopts an interview format, recording the analyses of the contemporary great philosopher Habermas and Derrida on the 9/11 event. The analyses of the two thinkers are not limited to this, although their specific approaches and final conclusions are distinct, they still agree on the need to reflect on the Enlightenment to find the true roots of the 9/11 event. The entire book is a collision between great minds and a meeting between thought and major contemporary events, making the "appearance of this book itself an event."
