Linklater and Discursive Ethics. Attempts of Redefining Realistic Systemic Theory
Journal Title: Analele Universitatii Ovidius Constanta Seria Istorie - Year 2006, Vol 3, Issue 0
Abstract
The author considers that we all live in an independent world within the framework of which State and communicational borders seem to dissolve and, consequently, the outcome is represented by a cosmopolite motley society in continuous change. The discourse in point of human rights and the presence of the attitude of respect regarding cultural, ethnic, religious and gender differences is known all over the world. The State is deprived by its traditional characteristics and confronts a loss of legitimacy in front of the people that are part of it. Discursive ethics in the manner in which is conceived by Linklater would be able to help us to interact? Or, the elements that are invoked by critical theory such as individual responsibility in point of victims of other societies and our own society are likely to be followed by an outcome or should they be discredited for their affiliation to utopist Marxism? The above asserted questions might be considered far too complex to have been answered within the text of the present article. There aren’t sufficient arguments in order to contradict those persons who sustain that society, either liberal or non liberal, doesn’t have any moral responsibility in respect of foreigners and internal difference, that is why the involved society preserves the right to accept or exclude the Other in order to be able to maintain the identity and internal cohesion. Far from imagining a social reformation all that the author hopes is represented by the opening of a dialogue between the two theoretical positions from within International Relations discipline by means of the present article.
