A review on the symposium “The Status of Ethics in Society” (Ljubljana, Slovenija, June 17, 2019) provided by Tinkara Tihelj and Gašper Pirc consists of two parts: a thematic introduction and a full report of discussions held. In the first text, one of the organizers and the moderator of the public discussion Gašper Pirc provides a foreword to the symposium, referencing the thematic horizon and the particular issues that the discussion intended to tackle. The text is the expanded version of his introductory speech at the symposium and relays the interpretation of contemporary society which was instrumental for the decision of the organizers to chart the said event. In the second part of the section, Tinkara Tihelj provides a full report of the discussion, including a short overview of the specific contribution of each participant. The report also reflects her own views on the importance of such events in the current society, pervaded by the lack of rational communication and dialogue between different approaches to interpretation and different academic disciplines.

Ethical Subjects in Contemporary Culture, 2013

Taking his lead from the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas, and engaging with a number of ethical thinkers, Dave Boothroyd addresses a number of key contemporary ethical subjects. In doing so, he reveals how responsibility is grounded in the everyday encounters and situations we are all familiar with. It pays particular attention to the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas. It engages with a number of important theorists of ethics and culture: Nietzsche, Heidegger, Lacan, Foucault, Derrida, Deleuze, Irigaray, Nancy and Badiou. It focuses on ethical concerns from hospitality and obligation, through friendship and love, to torture, death and justice.
