O knihe

“Care Ethics and Beyond adeptly engages with cultural traditions, epistemic dimensions, contexts, and practices of care. Its chapters forge new paths, insightfully showing us how care is central to our very being; they prompt us to reflect on how we can be better carers.”
—Karyn L. Lai, Professor of Philosophy, University of New South Wales, Australia

This volume boldly expands intellectual horizons on care and the ethics of care. Centred on human emotionality and interdependence, the ethics of care was developed in the 1980s by feminists Carol Gilligan and Nel Noddings.

Bringing together important insights from different areas of philosophy, the contributors of this volume engage in two vibrant dialogues, offering a unique and timely contribution to the field. First, they examine the care perspective through a cross-cultural lens, illuminating its rich potential through dialogues with Chinese and Japanese philosophy. Second, they address cross-field dialogues, building connections between the ethics of care and epistemology, virtue theory, phenomenology, philosophy of mind, and enactivism. Previously unexamined categories and distinctions are introduced into care discourse, refining our theoretical and practical understanding.
