Being Just with Freud … after Derrida

What might it then mean to be fair with Freud, to give justice to Freud, to do justice to Freud, to be just with Freud? What, then, of justice? More precisely, if there is to be a call to be fair to Freud, to do justice to Freud, ultimately to be just with Freud, must we not first think what justice might mean for Freud so that we might be just along with him? After Derrida, my essay attempts to read Freud to discover such a notion. More specifically, my reading will draw on Civilization and Its Discontents, the two essays on war, and Beyond the Pleasure Principle.
