Description

In The Capacity to Care: Gender and Ethical Subjectivity, Wendy Hollway examines a topic often missing from current literature on care. This book challenges the common assumption that the ability to care is an innate human trait. Instead, Hollway explores how this capacity is built through specific life stages and social experiences. The text follows the development of care through primary caregiving, gender development, and the later experience of parenting. By focusing on intersubjective experiences and the relationships between parents and children, the author explains how the capability to care is actually achieved through early developmental processes. This work provides a deep look into how babies and young children develop the skills needed to care for others. It is a significant resource for those studying psychology, gender, and social sciences, offering a new perspective on how human connections and early childhood experiences shape our ethical subjectivity and our ability to engage with the world.
