DESCRIPTION:<p>A week-long Seminar of intensive text-based examination and discussion of politics and democracy viewed from the perspectives of the ethics of responsibility elaborated by the philosopher Emmanuel Levinas (1906-1995).&nbsp\; Opposing the war and suppression of human-wolves of Hobbesian &lsquo\;realpolitik&rsquo\;\, on the one hand\, and the isolated individualism of the liberalism of Lockean propertied freedom\, on the other\, Levinas roots the political in the radical imperatives inter-personal obligation and ethical responsibility &ndash\; for each other and for all others &ndash\; which is to say\, in the quest for social justice.&nbsp\; Such a perspective\, binding the political to the ethical\, to morality and to justice\, makes democracy not one regime among others but the best regime\, the ideal of politics.</p>
