Caring for Liberalism : Dependency and Liberal Political Theory Hardback
Edited by Asha Bhandary, Amy R. Baehr
Part of the Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy series
Hardback
Description
Caring for Liberalism brings together chapters that explore how liberal political theory, in its many guises, might be modified or transformed to take the fact of dependency on board.
In addressing the place of care in liberalism, this collection advances the idea that care ethics can help respond to legitimate criticisms from feminists who argue that liberalism ignores issues of race, class, and ethnicity.
The chapters do not simply add care to existing liberal political frameworks; rather, they explore how integrating dependency might leave core components of the traditional liberal philosophical apparatus intact, while transforming other aspects of it.
Additionally, the contributors address the design of social and political institutions through which care is given and received, with special attention paid to non-Western care practices.
This book will appeal to scholars working on liberalism in philosophy, political science, law, and public policy, and it is a must-read for feminist political philosophers.
