Caring: A Feminine Approach to Ethics and Moral Education (Troska: kobiece podejście do etyki i wychowania moralnego)

Wprowadzenie

Nel Noddings, who taught philosophy of education at Stanford, published the book in 1984. She grounds ethics in the caring relation between the “one-caring” and the “cared-for”: caring involves engrossment, an attentive receptivity to the other’s reality, and a shift of motivation towards the other’s projects, and it is completed only when the cared-for responds. Obligation arises not from universal principles but from the memory of being cared for and the wish to remain a caring person, so it binds most strongly towards those close to us. The final chapters propose a moral education based on modelling, dialogue, practice and confirmation. Critics objected to the narrow circle of obligation and to the word “feminine”; the second edition (2013) is subtitled “A Relational Approach”.
