Ethics before Equality: Moral Education after Levinas.
Standish, Paul
Journal of Moral Education, v30 n4 p339-47 Dec 2001
Discusses nihilism as a characteristic of contemporary discourse regarding morality and moral education. Examines this discourse in light of Emmanuel Levinas' account of the primacy of ethics: absolute responsibility in the face of the other, of the asymmetry of relations to each other. (CAJ)
