Responsive Ethics and the War Against Terrorism: A Levinasian Perspective
Journal of Global Ethics 3 (3):317-334 (2007)
Abstract
Realist and liberal understandings of ethics as the dominant approaches to ethics in international relations are unable to respond efficiently to the call of the other in the age of war against terrorism as they revolve around the needs and the interests of the self. Such self-centred understandings of ethics cannot respond to the other ethically and respect the other in its otherness. Therefore, in this work I attempt to develop responsive ethics by drawing on Levinasian ethics which can create the possibilities of concrete non-violent responses to the other in the age of war against terrorism.Other Versions
