An Ethic of Care Feminist and Interdisciplinary Perspectives [Paperback]

Published in 1982, Carol Gilligan's In a Different Voiceproposed a new model of moral reasoning based on care, arguing that it better described the moral life of women. An Ethic of Careis the first volume to bring together key contributions to the extensive debate engaging Gilligan's work. It provides the highlights of the often impassioned discussion of the ethic of care, drawing on the literature of the wide range of disciplines that have entered into the debate.
