The Bloomsbury Handbook of Care Ethics (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Emphasising the vulnerability and interdependency of humans, care ethics has emerged in recent years as a powerful alternative to dominant modes of thinking in moral theory. Bringing together the theoretical and applied dimensions of care ethics, this pioneering volume provides an authoritative overview of what care ethics is, the internal debates within the field, and the contributions it can make to pressing contemporary problems.

Divided into three parts, Part I of The Bloomsbury Handbook of Care Ethics traces the development of care ethics and how it interacts with other central components of moral reasoning, such as freedom and normative justification. Part II then introduces readers to the ongoing discussions among care ethicists about the direction, scope, and underlying mechanisms of the theory. Finally, Part III showcases the varied contributions care ethics can make to key areas of applied philosophy, from medical ethics, disability and care, and feminist ethics to timely issues such as school design and public administration.

With an international team of experts providing interdisciplinary approaches to care, this is the place to start if you want to gain an in-depth insight into the field of care ethics and its crucial role in addressing worldwide vulnerabilities.
