Proponents of modernism, striving to uphold the banner of the Enlightenment, have sought to undermine dogmatism while maintaining the tenability of certain inviolable principles. Proponents of post-modernism, similarly seeking to advance emancipation, have seen “principles” as inherently antithetical to the achievement of the professed goals of the Enlightenment. In Habermas and Derrida – prime speakers of these respective camps – this debate reached a crescendo. Yet, in both of them, we see that the respective positions of modernism and post-modernism are essentially systemically incommensurable, whereby the position of each side is undermined – in the view of the other side – by its own stance.}, type={Article}, title={The Systemic Incommensurability of the Discourses of Habermas and Derrida}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/124400/PDF/2_Historyka_40_Garmer_The_Systemic.pdf}, keywords={modernism, postmodernism, Habermas, Derrida, incommensurability}, }
