Series Statement:
Perspectives in continental philosophy
Content:
"Radical Hospitality addresses a timely and challenging subject for contemporary philosophy: the ethical responsibility of opening borders, psychic and physical, to the stranger . . . [It] engages with urgent moral conversations concerning identity, nationality, immigration, commemoration, and justice . . . Building on key critical debates on the question of hospitality ranging from phenomenology, hermeneutics, and deconstruction to neo-Kantian moral critique and Anglo-American virtue ethics, the book explores novel possibilities for an ethics of hospitality in our contemporary world of border anxiety, refugee crises, and ecological catastrophe" -- from publisher
