In all the texts where Jacques Derrida focuses on“deconstruction,” his critique of the challenged “metaphysics” consistently assumes a universal judgment. However, the metaphysics he aims to deconstruct is specifically the ontology or substantialist metaphysics that is tied to intellectual cognition and remains bound to “symbolic thought” (language games). In reality, even within the Western tradition, there exists another lineage of metaphysics, one connected to the practice of life and emphasizing the revelation of value. This lineage, which can be termed “moral metaphysics,” originates in the teachings of Socrates and Plato and reaches maturity within Kant’s “critical philosophy.” Roughly analogous to this Western philosophical strain, ancient Chinese thought developed its own discipline of “pursuing the Way (Dao),” as encapsulated in the axiom “that which is above forms is called the Dao.” In contrast to substantialist metaphysics, this “moral metaphysics” and the discipline of “pursuing the Way” oriented toward “that which is above forms” can be collectively conceptualized as a “metaphysics of value.” Fundamentally different from the deconstructible substantialist metaphysics, this “metaphysics of value” possesses the very “undeconstructibility” that Derrida attributes to “justice.”
