Product Information

Ethical loneliness is the experience of being abandoned by humanity, compounded by the cruelty of wrongs not being acknowledged. It is the result of multiple lapses on the part of human beings and political institutions that, in failing to listen well to survivors, deny them redress by negating their testimony and thwarting their claims for justice. Jill Stauffer examines the root causes of ethical loneliness and how those in power revise history to serve their own ends rather than the needs of the abandoned. Out of this discussion, difficult truths about the desire and potential for political forgiveness, transitional justice, and political reconciliation emerge. Moving beyond a singular focus on truth commissions and legal trials, she considers more closely what is lost in the wake of oppression and violence, how selves and worlds are built and demolished, and who is responsible for re-creating lives after they are destroyed. Stauffer boldly argues that rebuilding worlds and just institutions after violence is a broad obligation and that those who care about justice must first confront their own assumptions about autonomy, liberty, and responsibility before an effective response to violence can take place. In building her claims, Stauffer draws on the work of Emmanuel Levinas, Jean Améry, Eve Sedgwick, and Friedrich Nietzsche, as well as concrete cases of justice and injustice across the world.

Reviews
Ethical Loneliness is a book well worth the read for those interested in transitional justice, violence, memory, and theories of non-sovereign subjectivity. Stauffer is a magnificently clear and thoughtful writer with a very strong authorial voice - a rare skill that is always a pleasure to come across., Our relationship to our past is shifting, multiple and emotive. In Ethical Loneliness Jill Stauffer builds on this dialogic conception of the self over time to develop a communicative theory of justice as a 'reparative' mode of giving the past its due. Lucid, attentive, nuanced this scintillating and surprising work instals a finely filigreed protocol of listening, a duty of hearing, in the heart of law., Stauffer's book breaks through legalistic approaches to mass violence and oppression to uncover the conditions of the repair of lives and worlds in human interdependence. Her bold claims for widely diffused reparative responsibilities are built on close discussions of how together we author--or destroy--selves and worlds. Her impressive blending of contemporary events and philosophical reflection reveals the wide scope of responsibility that implicates us in the repair of others' suffering in ways we are usually glad to ignore or resist., To read Ethical Loneliness is to undergo the page-turning yet profoundly uncomfortable experience of struggling to hear the fractured stories told by survivors. Jill Stauffer's voice leads us carefully and thoughtfully through an unsettling hell of testimonies, showing us how difficult it is for us to linger in the discomfort of hearing about violent injustice without rushing through the ugly parts, forgetting the hard parts, dismissing the odd parts, straightening out the chronology, watering down the anger, denying the complicity, enforcing forgiveness or victimhood, whitewashing the ending, and missing what is not said and what cannot be put into words. This book, or rather, this experience of listening, is destined to become, like Elaine Scarry's The Body in Pain , a classic text in the field. It is really that good., Stauffer practices and models philosophical listening, through her leveling of traditional philosophical authority, her embrace of specialists and nonspecialists alike, her critical attention to the particular echoes of ignorance in various discourses, her embrace and reinvigoration of a wide range of philosophical sources (from literary criticism to existential phenomenology), and ultimately, her attempts to listen to victims, perpetrators, and adjudicators of harm without presupposition., A small book with immense breadth and insight into the difficulties of and harms incurred through the process of political reconciliation in the aftermath of atrocity., This is a timely book--rarely has the fecundity of the continental approach to ethics been so clearly and persuasively on display., A timely book-rarely has the fecundity of the Continental approach to ethics been so clearly and persuasively on display., Stauffer involves us in ways of being and of being-together that are imperative yet elusive. And while a ready resolution is neither offered nor possible, the book itself is an absorbing vade mecum., Stauffer offers a profound way to think about ethics, not the ethics we want to have, that is, some above-the-fray determination of good and evil in all situations, but something far more human. Hers is an ethics based on the shared fact that the world is not safe and we do not have the assurances that we often turn to ethical systems for in the first place., One of the most interesting philosophical works that I have read in a long time. Ethical Loneliness positions itself in the literature on justice and demands that attention be paid to those who are abandoned in and through experiences of violence, oppression, and power., To deflate the power of law by pointing out how we have fetishized our relation to criminal justice, hoping that it could work as a magic bullet for the problem of harm, is perhaps the most important contribution of this book. . . . Repair is a collective effort which is to be renewed constantly and while the law can and should support this process, it cannot replace it., To read Ethical Loneliness is to undergo the page-turning, yet profoundly uncomfortable, experience of struggling to hear the fractured stories told by survivors of worlds' end. Like a modern Vergil, Jill Stauffer's pellucid, teacherly voice leads us carefully and thoughtfully through an unsettling hell of testimonies, showing us how hard it is for us to linger in the discomfort of hearing about violent injustice without rushing through the ugly parts, forgetting the hard parts, dismissing the odd parts, straightening out the chronology, watering down the anger, denying the complicity, enforcing forgiveness or victimhood, whitewashing the ending, and missing what is not said and what cannot be put into words. Stauffer leaves her readers at knife's edge; she will not resolve the tension that she creates into either a narrative of retributive justice or one of restorative peace. In this way, her book embodies its own theoretical premise: that the productive ambivalence of a Levinasian dialogue between self and other changes/creates the self. To read Ethical Loneliness , then, is to become a new "I" who has traveled part of the way toward experiencing the isolation of an ethically lonely "you." Only through that harrowing journey of hearing, Stauffer demonstrates, is there a possibility of a "we." This book, or rather, this experience of listening, is destined to become, like Elaine Scarry's The Body in Pain , a classic text in the field. It is really that good., Rarely can an academic work have been so theoretically acute yet so intensely moving. Jill Stauffer involves us in ways of being and of being-together that are imperative yet elusive. And whilst a ready resolution is neither offered nor possible, the book itself is an absorbing vade-mecum., Stauffer's book breaks through legalistic approaches to mass violence and oppression to uncover the conditions of the repair of lives and worlds in human interdependence. Her bold claims for widely diffused reparative responsibilities are built on close discussions of how together we author-or destroy-selves and worlds. Her impressive blending of contemporary events and philosophical reflection reveals the wide scope of responsibility that implicates us in the repair of others' suffering in ways we are usually glad to ignore or resist., Our relationship to our past is shifting, multiple, and emotive. In Ethical Loneliness , Stauffer builds on this dialogic conception of the self over time to develop a communicative theory of justice as a 'reparative' mode of giving the past its due. Lucid, attentive, and nuanced, this scintillating and surprising work installs a finely filigreed protocol of listening, a duty of hearing, in the heart of law., a small book with immense breadth and insight into the difficulties of and harms incurred through the process of political reconciliation in the aftermath of atrocity., This probing and insightful book breaks the crust of legalistic approaches to mass violence and oppression to uncover the conditions of the repair of lives and worlds in human interdependence. Stauffer's bold claims for widely diffused reparative responsibilities are built on close discussions of how together we author - or destroy - selves and worlds. Her impressive blending of contemporary events and philosophical reflection reveals the wide scope of responsibility that implicates us in the repair of others' suffering in ways we are usually glad to ignore or resist., Ethical Loneliness names and explores a dynamic of loneliness that forms the experience of being a citizen for many. It's an essential frame for understanding feelings of abandonment., A timely book--rarely has the fecundity of the Continental approach to ethics been so clearly and persuasively on display., Stauffer's voice is singular, her style disarmingly direct. The text studiously refuses disciplinary conventions and idioms in order to appeal to the widest interdisciplinary audience., Stauffer's argument for the fundamental importance of listening is as much about today as it is about the past. This is a must read for oral historians and everyone who thinks attentive listening matters deeply., As we enter into dark times that are sure to get darker, Stauffer's book is far from a cure-all but it offers a sense that to contend with the traumas to come, we must in some sense get not just louder but also quieter. This stands, not in a passive sense of accepting whatever happens, but on the contrary, in a position of active, engaged hearing, of never giving up on the fact that we share this earth together and we that suffer what happens in and to it together, or not at all., A superb book. The lessons it offers on how we fail to hear others' stories of suffering are vivid and wise., Stauffer practices and models philosophical listening, through her leveling of traditional philosophical authority, her embrace of specialists and non-specialists alike, her critical attention to the particular echoes of ignorance in various discourses, her embrace and re-invigoration of a wide range of philosophical sources (from literary criticism to existential phenomenology), and ultimately, her attempts to listen to victims, perpetrators and adjudicators of harm without presupposition. Her prose is delightfully lucid and, even in its hesitations, produces a palpable rhetorical force.
