Description

Dangerous life, it's a new version of Judith Butler's.precise 3-year-old book, which is the most controversial philosopher and theoretical book of our time. Now, as violence and disgust cross borders, the author seeks to find ways to make non-violence ethical possibilities based on understanding how easily human life can be destroyed. Especially through the concept of typing and facial expressions in Levinas, we examine how a man trapped in the blind spot of meaning is stripped of his face and deprived of his rights in the public forum by rule and power, and thus has the potential to be cast down and insensitive in front of their lives that we have been rooted in. The insight of the author, who goes from mourning for his vulnerability to solidarity and justice by defining him and his subject, has also made a big point in the current Korean community, where it is necessary to seek peace and harmony with foreign immigrants and refugees, and then North Korea. As Ammben says, ‘the only category that allows refugees to identify the form and limitations of the political community to come, ’ this book is the start of a concern for the New We, for those who seek solidarity against hatred and violence.

It's much easier to read than Gender's third part, and it's very interesting to connect directly to our world now.

In a society that's desecrating democracy, and in Korea, where highly educated people are known to have been among the OECD countries, we can still feel that there are many secrets of the ruling order that we need to know about.
