The negative notion of morality contends that because ethics cannot be divorced from questions of belonging and identity, there is a danger that it can be nudged into the domain of the unethical since ethical virtues can become properties to be possessed with which the recognition of others is solicited. Ethics thus fosters the very egoism it hopes to transcend, and risks excluding the unfamiliar and the stranger. The author argues inspirationally that the unethical underbelly of ethics must be recognized in order to ensure that it remains vibrant. 606 $aEthics 606 $aEthics$zChina 606 $aEthics$zWestern countries 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEthics. 615 0$aEthics 615 0$aEthics 676 $a170 700 $aFroese$b Katrin$f1970-$0974194 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463548403321 996 $aEthics unbound$92492807 997 $aUNINA
