Beskrivning

The present era of economic devastation, legacies of colonization and imperialism, climate change and habitat loss, calls for a new understanding of ethics. These essays on otherness, responsibility and hospitality raise urgent questions. Contributors range from the prominent--including Levinas, Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida and Giorgio Agamben--to recent theorists such as Judith Butler, Enrique Dussell and Rosi Braidotti. The essays emphasize the always vulnerable status of a radically different Other, even as they question what responsibility to that Other might mean.

Recensioner i media

“In Ethics after Poststructuralism, Levinas, Derrida, Foucault, and other prominent thinkers reflect upon the most urgent ethical questions in continental philosophy, after Heidegger. The editors have done an impressive job of assembling and juxtaposing key texts in order to generate further dialogue and debate. This book offers a readable introduction to poststructural theory. It would also work in the seminar setting.”—Christopher Wise, Western Washington University
