AUCUN OEIL NE L’A VU. SUR UNE FORCE ÉTRANGE D’AGIR POUR LES CHOSES LOINTAINES D’APRÈS LEVINAS (No eye sees that. On strange power to act in favor of things of distant future according to Levinas)

Abstract

The topic of our paper is utopia, understood as temporally (and not spatialy) invisible, as well as its importance for thinking through what Emmanuel Levinas, inspired by Ernst Bloch, call “work” (« œuvre » in french) and what will – as we shall see – have to be distinguished from action in the proper sense of the word.
