Abstract

Un individu en sauve plusieurs autres, inconnus de lui, au péril de sa vie, dans des circonstances difficiles, alors qu'il n'était tenu par aucune mission ou aucune fonction de le faire. Pour l'opinion commune, voilà qui est héroïque. Objets de fascination, les personnes moralement " héroïques " ou " saintes " sont nommées ainsi parce qu'elles ont accompli des actes exceptionnels, au-delà de tout devoir moral, des actes " surérogatoires ". Mais peut-on vraiment aller au-delà de l'obligation morale? Interrogé sur son acte, notre héros dit simplement: " Je n'ai fait que mon devoir. " Formule d'humilité, peut-être. Pourtant ne dirait-il pas la vérité? On a peut-être trop vite fait de donner des limites au devoir, comme un prétexte pour ne pas agir, en bien des circonstances. Cependant si le devoir est sans limite, l'exigence morale ne sera-t-elle pas excessive, insupportable? Les philosophes se disputent sur ce sujet. Il y a là une zone trouble de l'éthique, dont ce livre explore les paradoxes, en étudiant les débats contemporains sur les limites du devoir, et leurs répercussions sur notre vie éthique la plus ordinaire.

Abstract

A substantially new account of obligation, inspired by major thinkers in the Continental traditionBryan Lueck offers a substantially new solution to a classic philosophical problem: how is it possible that morality genuinely obligates us, binding us without regard to our perceived or actual well-being? Staging a fruitful dialogue between the analytic and Continental philosophical traditions, while reflecting specifically on the work of Hegel, Merleau-Ponty, Serres and Nancy, Lueck offers a creative new approach. Building on Immanuel Kant’s fact of reason – the idea that being a moral subject presupposes that one has accepted the bindingness of obligation – Lueck shows that moral obligation must be rethought as the fact of sense.Key FeaturesPresents a substantially new approach to the classic philosophical problem of the source of normativity Provides a detailed account of the history of western philosophical reflection on obligation Develops the ethical implications of the work of 20th century and contemporary Continental philosophers who are not typically regarded as moral philosophers Suggests new and fruitful paths of research on the work of Merleau-Ponty, Serres and Nancy"
