| Summary |
In the 1970s a student at the Harvard Graduate School of Education undertook a study of moral decision-making in real-life situations. Published in 1982, Carol Gilligan's 'In a Different Voice' proposed a new model of moral reasoning based on care, arguing that it better described the moral life of women. This volume brings together key contributions to the extensive debate engaging Gilligan's work. It provides the highlights of the often impassioned discussion of the ethic of care, drawing on the literature of the wide range of disciplines that have entered into the debate |
