Feminist Ethics edited by Claudia Card (Book review)

Abstract

Feminist Ethics, edited by Claudia Card, could well become the definitive collection in the field. Its contributors include Maria. Lugones, Marilyn Frye, Michele Moody-Adams, Elizabeth Spelman, Annette Baier, Sarah Hoagland, Marilyn Friedman, Victoria Davion, Joyce Trebilcot, Lynne McFalI, Ruth Ginzberg. There are three parts to the collection: Part One addresses Contexts, Histories, Method; Part Two, Character and Moral Agency; Part Three, Questions Concerning Women's Voices and Care, taking up the debate about caring triggered by Carol Gilligan's 1982 In A Different Voice -- a debate first captured in Women and Theory, edited by Eva Feder Kittay and Diana Meyers in 1987, in an important early collection in feminist ethics.
