Document Details : Title: The Ethical Meaning of Money in the Thought of Emmanuel Levinas Author(s): BURGGRAEVE, Roger Journal: Ethical Perspectives Volume: 2 Issue: 2 Date: june 1995 Pages: 85-90 DOI: 10.2143/EP.2.2.563064 Abstract : In the view of the Franco-Jewish philosopher Emmanuel Levinas, money has a multitude of anthropological and ethical meanings, not excluding contradictions.
