From the concrete experience of war, Michael S. Yandell constructs
a phenomenology of "negative revelation" in which false or
distorted claims of goodness and justice disintegrate, becoming
meaningless. Yandell argues that the disintegration of meaning in
war is itself a meaningful experience; "revealing" comes to signify
the presence of goodness and justice through the profound
experience of their absence. The heart of this work adds a layer of
complexity or depth to the term "moral injury" as a negative
revelation. Yandell emphasizes the context and logic of war itself
beyond the actions of individuals, paying specific attention to the
U.S. led Global War on Terror. Moral injury as a negative
revelation is a disintegration of false normative claims of
goodness and justice, as well as a disintegration of one's sense of
self oriented toward those normative claims. This disintegration is
prompted by the recognition of life in the midst of war's
diminishment of life.
