Description

Carol Gilligan's latest work explores the evolution of her thinking and its connection to her life experiences. She reflects on how her ideas about voice and relationships have developed over time, revealing new insights into the nature of love, citizenship, and human development. Gilligan's central conviction is that the requisites for love and citizenship in a democratic society are one and the same - rooted in our capacity for honest expression and resistance to false authority. This timely book combines autobiographical reflection with analysis of key questions about gender and human development, making it an engaging read for anyone interested in these topics. By listening carefully to her own voice and that of others, Gilligan has uncovered a more nuanced understanding of personal and political relationships, one that prioritises the importance of authentic expression and resistance.
