Abstract

This essay looks at the distinctions Jacques Derrida makes in several later works between the three Abrahamic monotheisms in terms of their reaction to or appropriation of tele-technology and the media. At the center of the essay is Derrida’s provocative claim that there is an essential relationship between mediatization, globalization – what Derrida calls globalatinization – and religion and that, since globalization is first and foremost a Christian phenomenon, only Christianity really deserves to go by the name of religion.
