Book Description
A compelling account of politics and social philosophy in Levinas's Talmudic commentaries Emmanuel Levinas (1906-1995) was a French philosopher known for his radical ethics and for his contribution to Jewish thought in his commentaries on Talmudic sources. In Levinas's Politics, Annabel Herzog confronts a major difficulty in Levinas's philosophy: the relationship between ethics and politics. Levinas's ethics describes the encounter with the other, that is, with any other human being. For Levinas, the face-to-face encounter is a relationship in which the ego is commanded by a transcendent and unquestionable order to take responsibility for the other person. Politics, on the other hand, presupposes at least three people: the ego, the other, and any third party. Among three people, nothing can be transcendent; on the contrary, everything must be negotiated. Against the conventional view of Levinas's conception of the political as the interruption and collapse of the ethical, Herzog argues that in the Talmudic readings, Levinas constructed politics positively. She shows that Levinas's Talmudic readings embody a pragmatism that complements, revises, and challenges the extreme ethical analyses he offers in his phenomenological works—Totality and Infinity, Otherwise than Being, and Of God Who Comes to Mind. Her analysis illuminates Levinas's explanations of the relationship between ethics and politics: ethics is the foundation of justice; justice contains a necessary violence that must be moderated by mercy; and justice, general laws, and national aspirations must be linked in an attempt to "improve universality itself."

Book Description
Recent shifts in the contemporary cultural, political, and religious landscape are engendering intensive attention concerning political theology. New trends and traditional ideas equally colour these movements. Given that a medley of recent books and articles have exhaustively treated both the history and the current resurgence of political theology, we now find ourselves faced with the task of reinventing and redefining the future of political theology. This book presents a rich overview of fresh, contemporary theoretical approaches uniquely prioritizing the prospects of the future of political theology, but also making room for significant interventions from philosophy and political theory. Including prominent essays on Judaic, Islamic, Buddhist and Christian perspectives, this book balances elements from post-modern theology with more classical as well as anti-post-modern approaches.

Book Description
This study is devoted to the often questioned normative substance of Jaques Derrida`s deconstruction in light of recurrent accusations of moral relativism or outright nihilism. The author develops an account of deconstruction ethically oriented toward the other in contradistinction against the fundamental ontology of Martin Heidegger. The latter is shown to contain merely an ethical orientation toward the own self and is therefore judged to be blind for the ethical consequences of one`s own conduct for others. Such self-aggrandisement is criticised by an exegesis of certain key texts of Derrida which are read against the backdrop of the for this purpose important philosophy of Emmanuel Lévinas. The ensuing critique has as its goal less the wholesale dismissal of Heidegger than a transcendence which extends his thought by an attentiveness to the ethical significance of the other. The risk of not regarding the other worthy of ethical consideration is exemplified by reference to the case of Ernesto Laclau, whose theory of hegemony exhibits a deconstruction transferred to the realm of political analysis and action, yet which is void of any normative principle. Thus is threatened a regression to the ethical solipsism of Heidegger which indeed is prone to allegations of moral relativism by right and which should be countered by a deconstruction mindful of its own intellectuel heritage. Der vorliegende Band widmet sich der Frage nach dem normativen Gehalt der Dekonstruktion nach Jaques Derrida angesichts fortbestehender Anwürfe des Nihilismus. Hierzu zeichnet der Verfasser vor dem Hintergrund der bewussten Auseinandersetzung mit und in Absetzung von der Fundamentalontologie Martin Heideggers mit Nachdruck ein Bild der ethischen am Anderen orientierten Dekonstruktion. Heidegger wird eine ethische Orientierung lediglich am Selbst nachgewiesen und somit eine Blindheit für die ethischen Auswirkungen eigenen Handelns für Andere. Diese effektive Selbstüberhöhung wird mithilfe der Exegese bestimmter Schlüsseltexte Derridas unter Hinzunahme des hierfür so wichtigen Denkens Emmanuel Lèvinas' einer Kritik unterzogen, die sich zum Ziel setzt weniger Heidegger`s Seinsanalytik zu verwerfen, sondern diese zu überschreiten, indem sie um die Aufmerksamkeit für die ethische Wertigkeit des Anderen erweitert wird. Dieser Band schließt mit einer Betrachtung der sehr gegenwärtigen Hegemonietheorie Ernesto Laclaus ab, um das Risiko zu demonstrieren, welches eine in die politische Analyse und Aktion übertragene Dekonstruktion birgt, die sich gegen die normativen Einsichten Derridas und Lévinas' sperrt und somit einen Rückschritt zum ethischen Solipsismus Heideggers darstellt. Dieser steht berechtigterweise in der Kritik eines moralischen Relativismus und sollte von einer Dekonstruktion abgelöst werden, die ihre eigenen intellektuellen Wurzeln nicht vergessen hat.

Political Responsibility for a Globalised World

Book Description
The aim of this book is to reflect on the complex practice of responsibility within the context of a globalised world and contemporary means of action. Levinas' exploration of the ethical serves as point of entry and is shown to be seeking inter-cultural political relevance through engagement with the issues of postcoloniality and humanism. Yet, Levinas fails to realise the ethical implications of the inevitable instrumental mediation between ethical meaning and political practice. With recourse to Weber, Apel and Ricoeur, Ernst Wolff proposes a theory of strategic co-responsibility for the uncertain global context of practice.

Book Description
This book explores how the notion of human identity informs the ethical goal of justice in human rights. Within the modern discourse of human rights, the issue of identity has been largely neglected. However, within this discourse lies a conceptualisation of identity that was derived from a particular liberal philosophy about the ‘true nature’ of the isolated, self-determining and rational individual. Rights are thus conceived as something that are owned by each independent self, and that guarantee the exercise of its autonomy. Critically engaging this subject of rights, this book considers how recent shifts in the concept of identity and, more specifically, the critical humanist notion of ‘the other’, provides a basis for re-imagining the foundation of contemporary human rights. Drawing on the work of Jacques Lacan and Emmanuel Levinas, an inter-subjectivity between self and other ‘always already’ marks human identity with an ethical openness. And, this book argues, it is in the shift away from the human self as a ‘sovereign individual’ that human rights have come to reflect a self-identity that is grounded in the potential of an irreducible concern for the other.

Book Description
Liberation theology has, since its beginnings over forty years ago, placed the poor at the heart of theology and revealed the ideologies underlying both society and church. Meanwhile, over this period, the progressive church appears to have stagnated and the poor of Latin America have turned increasingly to neo-Pentecostalism. 'The Poor in Liberation Theology' questions whether the effect of liberation theology is to provide a pathway to God or really to construct idols out of the poor. Combining the conceptual language of the philosophers Jean-Luc Marion and Emmanuel Levinas with the methodology of the liberation theologian Clodovis Boff, the volume outlines how liberation theology can work to ensure the poor do not become an ideological construct but remain icons of God. Drawing on a wealth of material from Latin American and Europe, the book demonstrates the continuing validity and importance of liberation theology and its further potential when engaged with contemporary philosophy.

Book Description
Deconstructive Constitutionalism explores the relationship between the thinking of Immanuel Kant and Jacques Derrida concerning modern constitutionalism. Kant is widely recognized as one of the philosophical forebears of modern constitutionalism; that is, the notion that state powers should be defined and limited through a constitution. Kant laid the foundation of constitutionalism through his exposition of freedom, practical reason, and moral law. However, constitutionalism is under severe strain due to the challenges posed by inter alia climate change, global health, global conflict, authoritarianism, authoritarian populism, religious fundamentalism, migration, and inequality. Deconstructive Constitutionalism investigates, by way of Derrida's engagements with Kant, how the foundations of constitutionalism can be conceived differently to address some of these twenty-first-century challenges. The book examines the possible implications of such a re-reading of Kant for democracy, the human-animal relation, criminal law and punishment, as well as for a global constitutional order.

Book Description
This anthology is inspired by the conviction that the big questions of human existence, including matters of love and hate, responsibility and war, matter to us both as individuals and as citizens of a global order. Hence, these questions ought to matter to philosophers as well. In exploring these questions, the authors follow the ethical turn in philosophy, which transgresses the boundaries between philosophical thought and empirical existence, as well as between philosophy and other disciplines. The central themes of the anthology focus on the relation between self and other, between ambiguity and ambivalence, and between the problem of evil and responses to it. The authors discuss these themes in relation to concrete issues in the present, including colonialism, immigration and national policies towards refugees, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, genocide, and mass rape. The contributors to this anthology, who come from a variety of national backgrounds, work in the fields of philosophy, psychology, and Holocaust studies.

Book Description
What is the ultimate task of law? This deceptively simple question guides this volume towards a radically original philosophical interpretation of law and justice. Weaving together the philosophical, jurisprudential and ethical problems suggested by five general terms - thinking, human suffering, legal meaning, time and tragedy - the book places the idea of law's ultimate task in the context of what actually happens when people seek to do justice and enforce legal rights in a world that is inflected by the desperation and suffering of the many. It traces the rule of law all the way down to its most fundamental level: the existence of universal human suffering and how it is that law-doers inflict or tolerate that suffering.
