Annotation | The author presents a feminist perspective on the ethics of care, and takes issue with accounts that focus on alleged basic principles of caring rather than analysing caring in practice. She argues that caring must be understood by 'working through examples', and explores four main caring practices: mothering, friendship, nursing and citizenship (i.e. individuals' relationships in the public domain). |
