The paper is focused on the following philosophical issues discussed by Paolo Bettineschi in
his book entitled L’oggetto buono dell’io. Etica e filosofia delle relazioni oggettuali: the transcendental
structure of thinking and desire; subjectivity and intersubjectivity, the good and the
right; hospitality and rejection. It also suggests an analogy between the ethics of restoration and
the restorative justice theory.
