+The encounter with the other reveals the other’s vulnerability along with the other’s irreducibility. I can injure and even kill the other just as easily as I can share my food with the other, so I ask why I should value the other at all. But this question comes too late: the relationship through which we comprehend the other is the condition of all value. Perpich |

+In the world of politics, the other is joined by the third, which extends the self’s ethical obligation to the entirety of humanity. Since I am finite, I cannot relate to all of humanity at once; this constitutes politics as the necessary, original violence the self imposes with and on the other. Politics is a universalization of the infinite obligation to the other, since otherwise I separate myself from the concrete others in front of me. Simmons |

+The universalization of ethical responsibility requires an agent to attempt to disburse justice—this justifies the liberal state. Its self-critical nature, always cognizant of the imperfection of its justice, is the only hope to satisfy the demand of the other. Simmons |

+We must fight this totalization. The other is a singular being, which is to say they are completely unique in their otherness as distinct from me. The address between myself and the other demands that I account for the other’s singularity. In the context of excessive force cases, the plaintiff cries out for a properly just reckoning, not merely one that subsumes the other under a previously decided general rule without any spirit of justice or concern for the other’s situation.

+Rigidly applying the law without translating concern for the other’s unique situation into action when one’s sense of justice demands it reduces the other to someone who is merely calculable. Judicial precedent and the legacy of the jury as a fact-finding body proves that the courts must do more than merely programmatically apply a rule as if calculating a math operation; it must render justice without certitude, steeped in the specificity of the situation. Also means the ethical application of rules presupposes the AC framework. Derrida 2 |

+Taking the life of the other is the worst form of totalization—it’s an attempt to know the other in their entirety, as opposed to merely limiting an aspect of the other to a category. Not putting right what can be put right about the death of an other is the worst possible harm under the framework—qualified immunity must be limited to allow justice to apply specifically. Perpich |
