혐오 감정 : 타자와 환대의 윤리로

Abstract

It is an era of hate. Nussbaum critically discusses the way humans project their primitive disgust onto socially lower-class or heterogeneous people. I examine the algorithm by which the same identifies or excludes the other based on the logic by which the object of hatred has been othered, that is, the logic of identity. The result is that others in society, that is, hate objects, are stigmatized, excluded, and expelled, leading to catastrophes such as war and genocide. Levinas understands this identity as totality and insists on transcendence to infinity. It is the ethics of the other. The other is the face. Welcoming and accepting others is hospitality. Derrida demands unconditional hospitality as absolute hospitality, but discusses the tension between conditional and unconditional hospitality. While discussing the emotion of disgust and the ethics of hospitality with others, I reflect on the difficulties that arise within these ethics through critics. It deals with concerns about absolute generosity toward others, the deconstruction of faces, and the battle between conditional and unconditional hospitality. However, the biggest difficulty of hospitality above all else is the problem of women/femininity that Levinas and Derrida have in relation to hospitality. The way women are otherized is similar to the way people loathe and hate those who are downtrodden and persecuted in society. Therefore, in order for unconditional hospitality to become hospitality of justice, a feminist perspective is required in addition to conditional hospitality of rights.
