Description
Carol Gilligan's In a Different Voice explores the concept of a "different voice" in moral development and selfhood. Originally published forty years ago, this landmark work brought women's voices to the forefront, enabling them to be heard with their own integrity for the first time. In this new book, Gilligan revisits her central arguments from a contemporary perspective, clarifying the nature of the "different voice" as a human voice that differs from patriarchal norms and hierarchies. She argues that care ethics is an ethics of liberation, offering a powerful critique of systems where patriarchy is in force or enforced. This book offers a nuanced exploration of the human experience, one that continues to resonate with readers today.
