Care Ethics and Public Health

What can unite multispecies communities, democratic public policies, milk and organ donation, assistive robotics, surrogacy, and the environmental crisis? Correct! They can all be conceived of in terms of Public Health. We do not mean traditional epidemiological approaches based on population statistics but rather feminist social epidemiology. Could a Feminist Care Ethics approach be applied to these pressing topics? If you ask yourself the same question, this is the book for you. The ideas of well-known authors like Carol Gilligan, Nel Noddings, Sara Ruddick, Virginia Held, Joan C. Tronto, Eva F. Kittay, Marian Barnes, and Maurice Hamington are invoked to help expand our imaginary. Welcome to this wonderful hive mind in which all the voices and knowledges from Iris Parra Jounou, Mª Teresa López de la Vieja, Belén Liedo, Rosana Triviño-Caballero, Isabel Roldán-Gómez, Cristian Moyano-Fernández, María José Guerra-Palmero, Txetxu Ausín, Lydia Feito, Marcos Alonso, Ester Massó Guijarro, Janet Delgado, María Victoria Martínez-López, Mar Vallès-Poch, Luis Espericueta, Maite Cruz Piqueras and Melania Moscoso are put together at the service of the collective.
