Political Responsibility for a Globalised World - After Levinas' Humanism (Paperback)

The aim of this book is to reflect on the complex practice of responsibility within the context of a globalized 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 in the issues of postcolonialism and humanism. However, Levinas fails to realize the ethical implications of the inevitable instrumental mediation between the ethical meaning and political practice. With recourse to Weber, Apel, and Ricoeur, Wolff proposes a theory of strategic co-responsibility for the uncertain global context of practice.
