- Book Synopsis
- Staging a fruitful dialogue between the analytic and Continental philosophical traditions, while reflecting specifically on the work of Hegel, Merleau-Ponty, Serres and Nancy, Lueck offers a creative new approach to the problem of moral obligation. Lueck builds on Immanuel Kant's fact of reason - the idea that being a moral subject necessarily presupposes ones having accepted the bindingness of obligation - to show that it must be rethought as the fact of sense.

His research focuses on topics in normative ethics including obligation, contempt, dignity and forgiveness, as well as on issues in 20th-century and contemporary Continental philosophy.
