What is Lingis and Asbestos: Community Divides about?

This document summarizes and analyzes the philosophy of Alphonso Lingis regarding communities and applies it to examine the town of Davidson, North Carolina which has been fractured by racial divisions and environmental contamination from asbestos. It discusses how Lingis defined two types of communities - the rational community and the intruder community - and how they interact. It then examines how other scholars like Biesta, Ahmed, and Magrini have critiqued and modified Lingis
