Murderous Consent – On the Accommodation of Violent Death: Perspectives in Continental Philosophy

Autor Marc Crépon, Michael Loriaux, James Martel
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 mai 2019
Winner, 2002 French Translation Prize for Nonfiction
Murderous Consent details our implication in violence we do not directly inflict but in which we are structurally complicit: famines, civil wars, political repression in far-away places, and war, as it's classically understood. Marc Cr pon insists on a bond between ethics and politics and attributes violence to our treatment of the two as separate spheres. We repeatedly resist the call to responsibility, as expressed by the appeal--by peoples across the world--for the care and attention that their vulnerability enjoins. But Cr pon argues that this resistance is not ineluctable, and the book searches for ways that enable us to mitigate it, through rebellion, kindness, irony, critique, and shame. In the process, he engages with a range of writers, from Camus, Sartre, and Freud, to Stefan Zweig and Karl Kraus, to Kenzaburo Oe, Emmanuel Levinas and Judith Butler. The resulting exchange between philosophy and literature enables Cr pon to delineate the contours of a possible/impossible ethicosmopolitics--an ethicosmopolitics to come. Pushing against the limits of liberal rationalism, Cr pon calls for a more radical understanding of interpersonal responsibility. Not just a work of philosophy but an engagement with life as it's lived, Murderous Consent works to redefine our global obligations, articulating anew what humanitarianism demands and what an ethically grounded political resistance might mean.

Descriere

Murderous Consent details our implication in violence that we do not directly inflict but in which we are structurally complicit. Marc Crepon invites the reader to resist that implication by arguing for an ethicosmopolitics grounded in our receptivity to the pleas for assistance that the vulnerability and mortality of the other enjoin everywhere.
