Özet

Bu makale, feminist bakım/özen etiğinin ahlak felsefesi alanına yaptığı katkılardan bazılarını gözden geçirmektedir. Her ne kadar bakım/özen etiği, Batılı ahlak teorilerinin eril bakış açılarının başarılı bir eleştirisini ortaya koymuş olsa da, bazı feminist düşünürler, bakım/özen etiğine karşı dişil bakıma olan özcül yaklaşımları nedeniyle mesafeli durmuşlardır. Makale etik alanına bu farklı feminist yaklaşımları gözden geçirirken, uluslararası siyasette savaş ve adalet sorularının etik boyutlarını kavramada, iki yaklaşımdan da faydalanabileceğini tartışmaktadır.
