摘要
在自由主义政治哲学中,从蒙田(Michel de Montaigne)到朱蒂丝·施克拉(Judith Shklar),残忍——为了引起痛苦和恐惧而故意对他人施加痛苦——被挑出来作为“所有罪恶中最邪恶的”,是不合理的:终极罪恶。在自由主义范式中,对残忍的无条件拒绝和否定被认为是纲领性的。在这篇文章中,两位人类学家将残忍作为一个概念与折磨(Stade)和爱(Rapport)进行三角分析。将实施残忍的能力和遭受残忍的责任作为人类状况的普遍方面,Stade和Rapport旨在实例化残忍的精确制定,其次,提出其社会否定的过程。中央情报局的培训手册和英国国民保健服务的日常做法被用作说明材料。
An anthropological investigation of cruelty and its contrasts
In liberal political philosophy, from Michel de Montaigne to Judith Shklar, cruelty – the wilful inflicting of pain on another in order to cause anguish and fear – has been singled out as ‘the most evil of all evils’ and as unjustifiable: the ultimate vice. An unconditional rejection and negation of cruelty is taken to be programmatic within a liberal paradigm. In this contribution, two anthropologists triangulate cruelty as a concept with torture (Stade) and with love (Rapport). Treating the capability to practise cruelty and the liability to suffer from cruelty as universal aspects of a human condition, Stade and Rapport aim to instantiate the precise enactment of cruelty, firstly, and secondly, to propose a process of its social negation. CIA training manuals and quotidian practice within the British National Health Service are employed as illustrative materials.
期刊介绍:
In modern industrial society reason cannot be separated from practical life. At their interface a critical attitude is forged. Philosophy & Social Criticism wishes to foster this attitude through the publication of essays in philosophy and politics, philosophy and social theory, socio-economic thought, critique of science, theory and praxis. We provide a forum for open scholarly discussion of these issues from a critical-historical point of view. Philosophy & Social Criticism presents an international range of theory and critique, emphasizing the contribution of continental scholarship as it affects major contemporary debates.
