LOS RESTOS DE LA MEMORIA. UNA HETEROLOGÍA DE LOS NOMBRES EN JACQUES DERRIDA.

It has been twenty years since the physical death of Jacques Derrida. Yet his legacy seems to be extraordinary alive and rich in a work which is profusely studied, which gives what to think in the sense about how it is possible to use his theoretical analyses to "think" in another way the world's problems both in the philosophical, political and sociocultural fields. Derrida's thought represents --perhaps more than ever-- an enigmatic challenge for the 21st century scholar. This paper aims a call to what could be "his name" in a "tribute" based on what Derrida called himself a "work of mourning" from the memory of the absent. He questions "what's left?", "is there any kind of surplus (of life, of meaning) which remains?". I seek therefore not exactly a homage to Derrida's death but rather to take some terms closely related themselves in Derrida's thought, in a way alike to what himself sought through concepts like différance, deconstruction, double session, spectrum, among others.
