On this account, listening is an intersubjective, and therefore ethical, relation in which the listener is not passive but actively involved. Listeners, particularly when relating to those who are disempowered, have a Levinasian responsibility to offer the other person the hospitality of listening to them, thereby facilitating the completion of that person´s communicative aims.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalopenAccesslisteningphenomenologyintersubjectivitycommunicationmagistritöödThesis
