In
Concern for the Other: The Ethics of K. E. Løgstrup, eleven scholars examine the structure, intention, and originality of Løgstrup's ethics as a whole. This collection of essays is a companion to
Beyond the Ethical Demand, as well as to
The Ethical Demand. The essays examine Løgstrup's crucial concept of the sovereign expressions of life; his view of moral principles as a substitute for, or inferior form of, ethics; his relationships to other philosophers, including the twentieth-century British moral philosophers; and the role of his Lutheran background in his ethics. Løgstrup also firmly advanced the controversial thesis, examined by several essays in this volume, that the demand for other-concern central to his ethics does not depend on religious faith.
