An insight into Adorno’s notion of ethical/moral violence is necessary and a poststructuralist analysis of ethics/morals does not signify a stance for moral nihilism as some too quickly may suggest.
Rather the idea is to consider Adorno’s perspective in which ethics is only possible if it can be made one’s own. If no living appropriation is possible, then it would seem to follow that the precept can be undergone only as a deathly thing, a suffering imposed from an in-different outside at the expense of freedom and particularity.‛
