Description

Explore the complex relationship between legal philosophy and feminist thought with Humanity, Freedom and Feminism. This academic work by Routledge examines the debate surrounding the concept of the universal human subject. While some feminists attempt to use this concept to include women, others argue that these ideas are inherently masculine and exclude feminine perspectives. This book provides a deep analysis and critique of second wave feminists who evaluate the perspectives of major philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Hobbes, and Kant regarding human capacities. Rather than simply critiquing the past, the author proposes a path forward by suggesting an inclusive universal concept of the human being. By combining the liberal tradition of positive liberty, Hegelian ideas regarding the formation of free human beings within society, and the principles of care ethics, this text offers a new framework for understanding humanity. It is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in legal philosophy, sociology, and feminist theory.
