Assessing the Responsibilities of the University: Educational implications in Derrida’s Thought.

This article is an attempt to evaluate Derrida's discourse on the tasks of the university and also to discuss the unlimited possibilities opened up for the contemporary university by the deconstruction of conventional definitions of the university. Derrida attempts to open up different definitions about the responsibilities of the university and to recognize its untranslatable aspects in order to draw new horizons of understanding for the university from this standpoint and to open up new possibilities by deconstructing the conventional definitions of the university. Derrida attempts to open up different definitions of the responsibility of the university and to recognize its untranslatable aspects, in order to outline new horizons of understanding for the university from this point of view and to identify and overcome the parasitic aspirations within it by questioning and criticizing its distorted missions. The guiding question of the article is: What new identity and responsibility does Derrida propose for the university? What are his strategies for liberating the university from the subjugation of heteronomy? The main message of the article, which examines three of Derrida's central works on the university, is based on the observation that the responsibility of the university in his thought is multi-layered and complex, interwoven with philosophical, moral and educational concerns. The nature of the university is irreducible, indeterminable and unconditional and eludes any kind of dominant and dogmatic discourse, the question of the reason for the existence of the university, its unconditionality and the conflict between the faculties was also always an open question. Based on such components, the reflection on the deconstruction and deontologization of the university, its autonomy and unconditionality, constructions of otherness and the role of education and research, the efforts to expand interdisciplinarity, the place of new humanities and cultural studies, the need to think about the coming society, the philosophical, moral and cultural studies approaches that have emerged in recent years series of philosophical, moral and educational implications arising from Derrida's reading of the new tasks of the university.
