About this episode
This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century existentialist and feminist philosopher, novelist, essayist, and playwright Simone de Beauvoir's book, The Ethics of Ambiguity
It focuses specifically on what she terms the "situation of oppression", which divides the human world into camps or clans. The oppressed can make use of their freedom to revolt against a harmony from which they are excluded, while those benefitting from oppression often frame it in terms of a "natural condition".
