McCormick, Peter
Eco-Ethics and an Ethics of Suffering

Ethical Innovation and the Situation of the Destitute.

McCormick suggests a re-articulation and critical appraisal of ecoethics in terms of its two cardinal concepts, the technological conjuncture and ethical innovation. Moreover, he articulates one direction only that further work on the ecoethical project might follow, namely sustained philosophical inquiry into what he has discussed elsewhere in terms of a "negative sublime" and the deep pathos of famine, the global necessity today for an ethics of suffering. 189 Seiten, broschiert (Universitätsverlag Winter 2008)
