The article aims to discuss the issue of responsibility towards the other taking into account the criticisms that Bernhard Waldenfels addresses to the Levinasian philosophy. In "Otherwise than Being" Levinas argues that subjectivity is characterized by passivity, insofar as it is constitutively "exposed" to the other, in such a way that it cannot escape responsibility. Waldenfels criticizes this Levinasian conception, arguing that the "trauma" which according to Levinas affects the subject leaves no room for the possibility of choosing the response.

Abstract
The article aims to discuss the issue of responsibility towards the other taking into account the criticisms that Bernhard Waldenfels addresses to the Levinasian philosophy. In "Otherwise than Being" Levinas argues that subjectivity is characterized by passivity, insofar as it is constitutively "exposed" to the other, in such a way that it cannot escape responsibility. Waldenfels criticizes this Levinasian conception, arguing that the "trauma" which according to Levinas affects the subject leaves no room for the possibility of choosing the response.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
