Care and caring are essential to the core of life. As an everyday
activity it guarantees the continuity of a humane society. In an era of
cold-blooded neo-liberalism, relationality, attentiveness, compassion,
solidarity and care are even more relevant traits to sustain a life
worth living ? not only for the precarious ones among us but for all of
us. To this end the Ethics of Care as a political ethical theory is the
most prominent champion of the relevance of care and caring on all
different levels of the research-policy-practice continuum and across
all domains of our lived realities.
Drawing on feminism as a critique on neo-Kantian ethics, the Ethics of
Care developed into an acknowledged sub-field since the early 1980s.
This edited volume by renowned scholars from across the globe presents
this trajectory with a critical engagement on a range of key issues, its
gradual development, and its subsequent scholarly and societal
contribution. These insights pertain to issues related to the more
intimate forms of care ? from person to person ? as well as issues of
care at an institutional level and questions of global impact. More
specifically, an up-to-date refinement of the concepts ‘vulnerability’
and ‘relationality’ are some examples of these insights. Similarly,
lessons of caring practices ranging from social welfare to palliative
care are shared.
This volume offers a critical overview of the current debates and the
future challenges of an Ethics of Care as a landmark branch of
contemporary ethics.
