Otherness and the Problem of Evil: How Does That Which Is Other Become Evil? [Book Review]
International Journal for Philosophy of Religion 60 (1/3):149 - 156 (2006)
Abstract
In seeking to answer the question "How does that which is other become evil?" the author provides a discussion of four entwined aspects of the issue at stake: (1) difficulty in achieving clarity on the grammar of evil; (2) genocide as a striking illustration of otherness becoming evil; (3) the challenge of postnationalism as a resource for dealing with otherness in the socio-political arena; and (4) the ethico-religious dimension as it relates to the wider problem of evilReprint years
