Taking its cue from Mark Nation’s regret that John Howard Yoder refrained from a fuller engagement with the Western philosophical tradition, this book is an effort to explore the possibilities inherent in that conversation. It develops a dialogue between Yoder and the French philosopher Emmanuel Levinas. The placement of Yoder’s work alongside of Levinas’ conception of otherness cashes out the embedded hope in Nation’s remarks by demonstrating the continuing relevancy of Yoder’s thought for current Christian sociopolitical discourse. This book is especially aimed at those who seek to continue exploring the themes and ideas of John Howard Yoder.
