Rogues, " published in France under the title "Voyous, " comprises two major lectures that Derrida delivered in 2002 investigating the foundations of the sovereignty of the nation-state.

Athens, Still Remains is an extended commentary on a series of photographs of contemporary Athens by the French photographer Jean-Franois Bonhomme. But in Derrida's hands commentary always has a way of unfolding or, better, developing in several unexpected and mutually illuminating directions.
