Abstract

haring the same dialectical logic with part of Anti-humanism theories, humanism has been thoroughly deconstructed by Derrida’s structuralism. but lacks the alternatives. Besides, in the discussion of post-human issues, humanism is easily brought back into the paradigm of confusion due to the anthropomorphism rooted in dialectics. This essay attempts to differentiate the “Posthuman” in a narrow sense from anti-humanism in a broad spectrum. Such posthuman detours the consciousness of subjectivity in its exteriority , opposes against fundamentalism, and deconstructs all kinds of opposite monism as well as its empirical embodiment.
