Concern for the Other - Perspectives on the Ethics of K. E. Logstrup (Paperback, 2nd ed.)

In Concern for the Other: The Ethics of K. E. Logstrup, eleven scholars examine the structure, intention, and originality of Logstrup's ethics as a whole. This collection of essays is a companion to Beyond the Ethical Demand, as well as to The Ethical Demand. The essays examine Logstrup's crucial concept of the "sovereign expressions of life"; his view of moral principles as a substitute for, or inferior form of, ethics; his relationships to other philosophers, including the twentieth-century British moral philosophers; and the role of his Lutheran background in his ethics. Logstrup also firmly advanced the controversial thesis, examined by several essays in this volume, that the demand for "other-concern" central to his ethics does not depend on religious faith.
