Available in English for the first time, this much-anticipated
translation of Enrique Dussel's "Ethics of Liberation" marks a
milestone in ethical discourse. Dussel is one of the world's
foremost philosophers. This treatise, originally published in 1998,
is his masterwork and a cornerstone of the philosophy of
liberation, which he helped to found and develop.
Throughout his career, Dussel has sought to open a space for
articulating new possibilities for humanity out of, and in light
of, the suffering, dignity, and creative drive of those who have
been excluded from Western Modernity and neoliberal rationalism.
Grounded in engagement with the oppressed, his thinking has figured
prominently in philosophy, political theory, and liberation
movements around the world.
In "Ethics of Liberation," Dussel provides a comprehensive world
history of ethics, demonstrating that our most fundamental moral
and ethical traditions did not emerge in ancient Greece and develop
through modern European and North American thought. The obscured
and ignored origins of Modernity lie outside the Western tradition.
"Ethics of Liberation" is a monumental rethinking of the history,
origins, and aims of ethics. It is a critical reorientation of
ethical theory.
