This book reviews the facts and arguments surrounding Heidegger's politics, and situates them within critical political debates as we move into the 21st century.

Heidegger and the Nazis

Donald

This is an essay-length book that deals with the debate about Heidegger's relationship to Nazism. It presents the perspectives of various figures within than debate, notably Derrida.

This book is very clear about the biographical facts of Heidegger's connection to the Nazi party, but it does not make a firm argument about his philosophy.

This book achieves its purpose: it is a good starting point for those interested in the debate. But it is nothing more than that.
