Description

Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak’s Ethics and Politics in Tagore, Coetzee and Certain Scenes of Teaching attempts to track the ‘literary’ in the production of ethics and politics. Ethics here is not an inventory of moral principles to be followed in action. Instead, the ethical is proposed as an unconditional call to which the human being must learn to respond. Even years after its publication, the arguments Spivak makes retain their relevance for students of the social sciences.

About the Author
