Abstract
This article studies the idea of a friendly action which leads to a new understanding of responsibility and meaning ofthe ethics. The friendly action is analyzed as an «invitation» of one person to the other, which leaves the other the absolute freedom of reacting or of doing nothing. it examines the very possibility of a new form of existence — or of the coming into existence of a new form. This analysis is conducted according to the guidelines of the philosophy of deconstruction provided by a text of Jacques Derrida.
