Love, that indispensable supplement: Irigaray and Kant on love and respect
Hypatia 20 (3):92-114 (2005)

In Kant's view, respect and love, as duties, are in tension with each other because love involves drawing closer and respect involves drawing away. By contrast, Irigaray says that love and respect do not conflict because love as passion must also involve distancing and we have a responsibility to love. I argue that love, understood as passion and based on respect, is essential to ethics | |||||||||
