Levinas’s ambiguous stance on the question “Do Animals Have a Face” not only indicates the limitations of his ethics in dealing with animal questions but also suggests the potential of applying it to animal ethics. In view of Derrida’s criticism of Levinas’s thoughts on animals, we tend to consider “death of animals” a subjectivity-shaping ethical event. Human beings should bear a sense of guilt as survivors towards animals, and turn it into ethical responsibility. Animals should be seen as“ the third party,” or the Other of the Other in Levinas’s philosophy, and be included in an open community. In such an ethics-based Levinasian community, animals as the Other is equal to humans and humans must be responsible for them.
