Abstract
Peter Goodrich undertakes a postmodernist deconstruction of the modernist daims to autonomy of analytical and pure theories of law as contract as indicated by Rousseau. The autonomy of law must suppose a repressive starting point or foundation. Considering the Social Contract alongside the Essay on the Origin of Language, also by Rousseau, Goodrich draws out Derridean themes of ghostly memory and obsessive repetition to expose what the pretended foundation of law represses.
