Routledge Justice, Care, and Value: A Theory of Care Ethics

In Justice, Care, and Value, Thomas Randall presents a compelling argument for the radical potential of care ethics. As a distinct and preferable theory of distributive justice, this work advances existing feminist literature to defend a vision of society designed to let caring relations thrive. Randall proposes a values-driven theory of care ethics. By using a specific classification of the values of care, the book provides normative criteria to evaluate the moral worth of caring relations and the institutions that surround them. This framework offers unique and meaningful solutions to contemporary questions regarding justice and social structures. Part of the Routledge Innovations in Political Theory series, this book is an essential resource for those studying political theory, feminist philosophy, and distributive justice. It provides a rigorous foundation for understanding how values can shape our approach to social and moral obligations.
