Abstract

In "Moral Boundaries" Joan C. Tronto provides one of the most original responses to the controversial questions surrounding women and caringand demonstrates that feminist thinkers have failed to realise the political context which has shaped their debates about care. "Moral Boundaries" contests the association of care with women as empirically and historically inaccurate, as well as politically unwise. In our society, other groups such as the working classes and people of color also do disproportionate amounts of caring. Tronto presents care as one of the central activites of human life and illustrates the ways in which society degrades the importance of caring in order to maintain the power of those who are privileged.
