The book by the famous Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben is an attempt to rethink the essence of the “ethical” in the context of the concept of “any being,” which is the concentration of the main problems of the postmodern world. Based on the new configuration of being, new tasks are posed for ethical thought itself, where the central problem is the community, which, however, is deprived of a “common.” The problem of the original ethical place as the place of the community itself is comprehended. The publication is intended for everyone who is interested in modern philosophy.
