5 Teaser | Beauvoir: Existentialism and Liberation
Manage episode 282349970 series 2842869
Full episode on the Patreon: patreon.com/leftofphilosophy
In this episode, we talk about Simone de Beauvoir's masterful book The Ethics of Ambiguity. We spend some time with her typology of inadequate ethical positions, focusing on the subhuman, the serious person, and the nihilist, and discuss what it means to say that freedom is only possible as a liberatory movement. Oh and we make fun of the abstract negation of revolt, the absolute value of the Target corporation, and Ayn Rand's 'epistemology'.
