Contemporary problems such as post-politics, post-capitalism, digitization, among others, have entered the themes of literature, sparking debates around the current state of affairs, investigating its causes, anticipating its possible consequences. This trend resonates in the suggestive "Ethical Turn" (Baker, 1995), according to which reflection on experience, both individual and collective, would be inherent in literature, through what Levinas (Levinas, 1961) called, an ethics of language. This issue of Ethics and Politics, dedicated to the relationship between ethics and literature, proposes some paths in this field of research and creation.
