Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In modern nations, it has been assumed that publicness brings maximum benefits to “humans” of the “current generation” with science and technology regarded as a tool to this end. If we are to criticize such a modern framework and present an alternative ethical standard that is not too human-centric or current-generation-centric, we need to be able to engage in dialogue with the dead and embrace a sense of responsibility toward future generations. This research refers to this idea as “Ethics of the Absent” and theorizes it, not by considering how we can position religion in publicness, but by attempting to release publicness that has been confined to religion.
