Ricoeur was prompted to amplify his thoughts about prophecy and nonviolence by Merleau-Ponty's Humanism and Terror. In his review of this book, Ricoeur pays particular attention to Merleau-Ponty's discussion of the contrast Arthur Koestler makes in Darkness at Noon between the Yogi and the Commissar. For Koestler, the Yogi is so determined to preserve his own abstract moral purity that he has no concern for the historical efficacy of what he does or omits doing. The Commissar, on the other hand, cares about nothing but this historical efficacy.
The ethical demands of intersubjectivity cannot be postponed. They must be answered in any possible context, even a chaotic one. However hampered or handicapped by collective greed and violence, my unchosen dedication to any you constitutes the urgency of morality for me. If everybody is an I, this urgency is general. It is everywhere and always, here and now, for everybody the appropriate time for being just. Justice cannot be postponed. By postponing morality until we have transformed the existing world into a better one, we would show how relative our interest in respect and compassion is.
For example, the thesis that all humans are similar—a thesis no modern philosopher would risk to deny—does not express my immediate and original experience of your facing me. What I see or hear or feel primordially is a thorough difference. The phenomenon you are, does not resemble what I perceive of myself. " The first "feature" of my experiencing your being-there is your looking at me or speaking to me or touching me; and / will never be able to experience myself in the same way. Because I cannot address myself as if I were you, I will never hear or see or touch myself from such a distance, within such an openness of space and time, and I will never perceive myself looking at me or speaking to me or touching me.
