空虚,实际上是虚无主义,是当代许多关于道德和道德教育的话语的一个特征。这不仅体现在教导是非的简单观念中,也体现在权利谈论的盛行及其关于平等的神圣假设中。本文根据列维纳斯对道德首要性的阐述——我面对他人的绝对责任、我与他人关系的不对称性——来审视这一论述。它寻求一种对接受性的解释,将伦理学从道德推理的局限性中解放出来。
Emptiness, indeed nihilism, is a characteristic of so much contemporary discourse regarding morality and moral education. This is found in facile notions of teaching right and wrong but also in the prevalence of rights-talk, with its sacrosanct assumptions about equality. This article examines this discourse in the light of Levinas' account of the primacy of ethics - of my absolute responsibility in the face of the other, of the asymmetry of my relation to the other. It seeks an account of receptivity that releases the ethical from the limitations of moral reasoning.
