Feminism and Families
ISBN: 9780415912549 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A ground-breaking volume of all new essays covering the conjunction of two topics--feminism and families--that, for all their centrality in our culture, have not been adequately examined in light of one another. While the family has suffered feminist neglect, most women are in fact members of families, living their lives within the social context of families, even at a time when the concept of "family" has become bewilderingly unstable. The intersection of families and feminism is thus one in need of philosophical reflection, as a basis both for good public policy and for the ethical...

Stories and Their Limits: Narrative Approaches to Bioethics
ISBN: 9780415919104 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Narratives have always played a prominent role in both bioethics and medicine; the fields have attracted much storytelling, ranging from great literature to humbler stories of sickness and personal histories. All bioethicists work with cases - from court cases that shape policy matters to case studies that chronicle sickness. But how useful are these various narratives for sorting out moral matters? What kind of ethical work can stories do and what are the limits to this work? The essays in this volume offer reflections on the relationship between narratives and ethics.

Damaged Identities, Narrative Repair
ISBN: 9780801487408 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Hilde Lindemann Nelson focuses on the stories of groups of people including Gypsies, mothers, nurses, and transsexuals whose identities have been defined by those with the power to speak for them and to constrain the scope of their actions. By placing their stories side by side with narratives about the groups in question, Nelson arrives at some important insights regarding the nature of identity. She regards personal identity as consisting not only of how people view themselves but also of how others view them. These perceptions combine to shape the person's field of action. If a dominant...
