Ethics and Danger examines Heideggers association with German National Socialism and attempts to understand both the question of politics in Heideggers thought and the thought that gives rise to that question. It explores the contribution of Heideggers work to issues of ethics, technology, and social theory, as well as his relationship to other thinkers such as Parmenides, Aristotle, Hegel, Husserl, Benjamin, Levinas, Rorty, Foucault, and Derrida. Finally, it addresses the more general question of the future of ethical thought within continental philosophy. In order to engage the ethical issues surrounding Heideggers life and thought, the authors speak of dangers such as facism and the facile, self-congratulatory moral stance that Heidegger exemplifies. The question of how to speak in the wake of Heideggers thought takes many forms, and the answers represent a diversity of viewpoints from both American and continental thinkers.
