Unbecoming Subjects

Judith Butler, Moral Philosophy, and Critical Responsibility

Beschreibung

Moral philosophy and poststructuralism have long been considered two antithetical enterprises. This title argues that Judith Butler's work makes possible a productive encounter between moral philosophy and poststructuralism, rethinking responsibility and critique as key concepts at the juncture of ethics and politics.
