This book brings together an international cohort of leading scholars to address the question of doing ethics in the light of Wittgenstein. Chapters advance a conception of philosophical ethics characterized by an attention to detail, meaning and importance which itself makes ethical demands on its practitioners. Working in conversation with literature and film, engaging deeply with anthropology and critical theory, and addressing problems from racialized sexual violence against women to the Islamic State, this book reclaims Wittgenstein's legacy as an indispensable resource for contemporary ethics
