About this product

Product Information

Anthropology as Ethics is concerned with rethinking anthropology by rethinking the nature of reality. It develops the ontological implications of a defining thesis of the Manchester School: that all social orders exhibit basically conflicting underlying principles. Drawing especially on Continental social thought, including Wittgenstein, Merleau-Ponty, Levinas, Dumont, Bourdieu and others, and on pre-modern sources such as the Hebrew bible, the Nuer, the Dinka, and the Azande, the book mounts a radical study of the ontology of self and other in relation to dualism and nondualism. It demonstrates how the self-other dichotomy disguises fundamental ambiguity or nondualism, thus obscuring the essentially ethical, dilemmatic, and sacrificial nature of all social life. It also proposes a reason other than dualist, nihilist, and instrumental, one in which logic is seen as both inimical to and continuous with value. Without embracing absolutism, the book makes ambiguity and paradox the foundation of an ethical response to the pervasive anti-foundationalism of much postmodern thought.

    Seller offered best price on ebay for this DVD. Fast mailing & item arrived safely, securely packaged & although advertised as being in VGC, is actually like new! DVD plays perfectly as described. One of the best live concerts of all time with this artist & his band! Connected the DVD player to my amp with an Optical Digital cable & sounds fantastic thru the speakers! Great communication from the seller. Another smooth and pleasant transaction experience with this professional ebayer. Thanx AA++
