The article’s first three sections can be divided into two main parts. The first part (section 2) accounts for the criticism of the Christian variation of the injunction of neighbour lovethat Freud presents in Civilization and Its Discontents, and examines thebackground for this critique. The second part (section 3-4) encirclesthe concept of the neighbour as the hub of a form of ethical anti-ethicsthrough a reading of some key passages from Jacques Lacan’s famousSeminar VII on psychoanalytic ethics and Søren Kierkegaard’s Worksof Love. The article last section (section 5) provides a brief concludingsummary.
