Thesis (Ph.D.)--Princeton University, 2006.

From this historical inquiry into the political re-conceptualization of hospitality emerges the idea that it can be best understood as a systemic tension between the inside and the outside---an immunological process, by way of which the sphere of the familiar admits, rejects, or distances that which is foreign.

520 # $a From this historical inquiry into the political re-conceptualization of hospitality emerges the idea that it can be best understood as a systemic tension between the inside and the outside---an immunological process, by way of which the sphere of the familiar admits, rejects, or distances that which is foreign.
520 # $a This conceptual shift towards the "political" is examined in five chronological chapters. Chapter one deals with what is arguably the first theologico-political treatise on hospitality---a text written in England by a French Protestant refugee, which explicitly accuses Catholic France of inhospitality and calls for the creation of laws protecting strangers and refugees throughout Europe. This reflection on the concept of toleration foreshadows the subject of chapter two---Pierre Bayle's Commentaire philosophique sur les paroles de Jesus-Christ " Contrains-les d'entrer ." Bayle's text constitutes a critical response to the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes and the "forced hospitality" of Louis XIV, which makes visible the tension between the sovereign imperative of homogeneity and the necessity of welcoming the dissonant other. Chapter three examines how later thinkers such as Voltaire and Rousseau also understood the opposition between the individual and the state through the concept of hospitality. For them hospitality exceeded the contractual relationship of the commercial nation-state---it belonged to the realm of the sentimental, reminiscent of Hellenic philia. Chapter four looks at the ways in which revolutionary France dealt with the question of hospitality, and how the idea of a "universal republic of united individuals" came to clash with the concept of the "state of emergency." Chapter five focuses on Kant's notion of "universal hospitality" as the philosophical foundation of international law.
520 # $a This study focuses on the emergence, in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, of a new discourse on hospitality. With the institution of the modern nation-state, and a new understanding of space and community, hospitality was radically redefined: it ceased to be considered merely a "virtue" or a "duty," as was mostly the case in the Greco-Roman and Judeo-Christian traditions, and became increasingly bound to questions of religious tolerance, sovereignty, territory, law, and cosmopolitanism.
