''Limited Inc'' is a 1988 book by the French philosopher Jacques Derrida, containing two essays and an interview. The first essay, "Signature Event Context," is about J. L.

As in a general partnership, the GPs have actual authority, as agents of the firm, to bind the partnership in contracts with third parties that are in the ordinary course of the partnership's business.
