Heidegger, Levinas, Outerspace and the Reproduction of Facism

What can we learn about the reproduction of fascism (and fascist desires) by re-staging the well-known antagonisms between the phenomenology and politics of Martin Heidegger and Emmanuel Levinas? In this paper I read Levinas's "Heidegger, Gagarin and Us" — which chronicles the Russian astronaut Yuri Gagarin's successful outer-space orbit in 1961 and takes the occasion to refute Heidegger's ontological attachment to "Place" — along with the latter essays of Heidegger, "Building Dwelling Thinking" and "The Question Concerning Technology." Heidegger's essays have a provincialist, rooted, anti-technological and at times polytheistic ethos that Levinas expresses a strong aversion to. Levinas's aversion to "the Place" and human "rootedness" follows from his belief that Heidegger's attachment to place has fascist potentials. I ask however, if Levinas's thought fails to overcome what he most fears in his philosophical predecessor through his attachment to the idea of Jewish ethical exemplarity in the newly founded State of Israel?
