Moral philosophy and poststructuralism have long been considered two antithetical enterprises. Moral philosophy is invested in securing norms, whereas poststructuralism attempts to unclench the grip of norms on our lives. Moreover, poststructuralism is often suspected of undoing the possibility of ethical knowledge by emphasizing the unstable, socially constructed nature of our practices and knowledge. In "Unbecoming Subjects", Annika Thiem argues that Judith Butler's work makes possible a productive encounter between moral philosophy and poststructuralism, rethinking responsibility and critique as key concepts at the juncture of ethics and politics.Putting into conversation Butler, Levinas, and Laplanche, Thiem argues that responsibility becomes possible only when we do not know what to do or how to respond, yet find ourselves under a demand to respond, and even more, to respond well to others.In further conversation with Adorno and Foucault, "Unbecoming Subjects" examines critique as a central practice for moral philosophy, interrogating the limits of moral and political knowledge and probing methods of social criticism to uncover and oppose injustice.
