Bad Care
Feminist criticisms of the ethics of care – from both within and outside the approach's own fold – have historically charged care ethics with “valorising caring”. Feminist care ethicists have responded to this criticism by acknowledging that care can sometimes be bad – it can be performed poorly, prove lacking or deficient in some respect, or take place under deeply unjust structural conditions. But this consensus leaves the harder and more impor…
The Legal Concept of Care
The notion of ‘care’ is invoked within legal doctrine in the law of tort, medical law, and family law. Yet despite its centrality across these doctrinal domains, these invocations have rarely been studied together. This neglect seems to stem from an underlying assumption that ‘care’ refers to fundamentally different things in each context – rendering consolidated analysis unhelpful. This paper challenges that assumption. I argue that, contrary to…
Why Do We Owe Duties to Care
We are often responsible for the care of others – we find ourselves accepting these responsibilities, and in turn, holding others accountable for fulfilling theirs. Yet while it is clear that we sometimes owe such duties, it is less clear why we owe them. What explains our duties to care? It is this question that I take up. This is a question about normative grounding: it asks why, or in virtue of what, these duties exist. Though not expressly fr…
Care as a Thick Ethical Concept
Philosophers who study care—most often, care ethicists—are involved in an ongoing discussion about the concept of care. Despite the significant progress made in this discussion, certain conflicting images of care seem to persist in the literature. On one hand, as feminist theorists across disciplines have highlighted, care is a complex social practice that is mired in inequality and injustice. The deeply gendered nature of caring and the unequal …
The Value of Vagueness
Judicial verdicts matter. Apart from deciding the fate of litigants, common law verdicts hold precedential value. They create and alter legal cultures. Considering their importance, it is crucial to ask: what do judicial verdicts turn on? Each verdict is certainly influenced by the case facts, evidence and argumentation presented before the court. However, verdicts are also importantly shaped by how we think about language. 1 Questions about lang…
