Using intersectionality as a critical reference point, the investigation highlights two key shortcomings of care ethics which stem from this ethics’ prioritization of gender and gendered power relations: inadequate conceptualizations of diversity and power. The article draws on concrete examples related to migrant domestic work to illustrate how an intersectionality lens can advance new theoretical insights for understanding caring practices (or lack of them), and generate new methodological and practical strategies for confronting and transforming the deeply entrenched interlocking power inequities that undermine the realization of care in an increasingly complex context of national and international policy and politics.

After introducing the conative domain, it argues for the need to have a psychological and educational model of human character. The paper presents Espinalt’s (1920-1993) concepts of will and character and their consequences for education. After having explored human will and understanding the causes for the relative lack of consideration of will by modern psychology, a definition of character is presented as a result of exercising human will. Three different dimensions of character are considered: One more connected with instincts, another with culture, and the most distinctive of individual self-engraving. The third dimension leads to different considerations of education that are briefly explained. The Espinaltian vision is contrasted with other contemporary visions of human will and character. The social and historical forces with an influence on the education of the character are also considered. Finally the paper argues for the centrality of these approaches for a moral education which is based on Aristotelian views.

It explores existentialist tenets in feminist ethics and care ethics and reclaims existentialism as a resourceful theory in addressing global ethical issues. My dissertation moves beyond the once prevalent paradigm that feminist ethics should be devoid of any traditional ethical theories and it shows that an existential phenomenological ethics can complement feminist ethics in a productive way. The first chapter, introduces and discusses an existentialist notion of freedom based on Simone de Beauvoir and Jean Paul Sartre’s writings. In order to establish that human beings are metaphysically free, I explain notions of in-itself, for-itself, transcendence, immanence, facticity, and bad faith which are the basic notions of an existentialist notion of freedom.

  • Rethinking Feminist Ethics
    RETHINKING FEMINIST ETHICS The question of whether there can be distinctively female ethics is one of the most important and controversial debates in current gender studies, philosophy and psychology. Rethinking Feminist Ethics: Care, Trust and Empathy marks a bold intervention in these debates by bridging the ground between women theorists disenchanted with aspects of traditional ‘male’ ethics and traditional theorists who insist upon the need for some ethical principles. Daryl Koehn provides one of the first critical overviews of a wide range of alternative female/ feminist/feminine ethics defended by influential theorists such as Carol Gilligan, Annette Baier, Nel Noddings and Diana Meyers. She shows why these ethics in their current form are not defensible and proposes a radically new alternative. In the first section, Koehn identifies the major tenets of ethics of care, trust and empathy. She provides a lucid, searching analysis of why female ethics emphasize a relational, rather than individualistic, self and why they favor a more empathic, less rule-based, approach to human interactions. At the heart of the debate over alternative ethics is the question of whether female ethics of care, trust and empathy constitute a realistic, practical alternative to the rule- based ethics of Immanuel Kant, John Stuart Mill and John Rawls. Koehn concludes that they do not. Female ethics are plagued by many of the same problems they impute to ‘male’ ethics, including a failure to respect other individuals. In particular, female ethics favor the perspective of the caregiver, trustor and empathizer over the viewpoint of those who are on the receiving end of care, trust and empathy.

  • Aristotle, Kant, JS Mill and Rawls Raphael Cohen-Almagor
    1 On the Philosophical Foundations of Medical Ethics: Aristotle, Kant, JS Mill and Rawls Raphael Cohen-Almagor Ethics, Medicine and Public Health (Available online 22 November 2017). Abstract This article aims to trace back some of the theoretical foundations of medical ethics that stem from the philosophies of Aristotle, Immanuel Kant, John Stuart Mill and John Rawls. The four philosophers had in mind rational and autonomous human beings who are able to decide their destiny, who pave for themselves the path for their own happiness. It is argued that their philosophies have influenced the field of medical ethics as they crafted some very important principles of the field. I discuss the concept of autonomy according to Kant and JS Mill, Kant’s concepts of dignity, benevolence and beneficence, Mill’s Harm Principle (nonmaleficence), the concept of justice according to Aristotle, Mill and Rawls, and Aristotle’s concept of responsibility. Key words: Aristotle, Immanuel Kant, John Stuart Mill, autonomy, beneficence, benevolence, dignity, justice, nonmaleficence, responsibility, John Rawls Introduction What are the philosophical foundations of medical ethics? The term ethics is derived from Greek. ἦθος: Noun meaning 'character' or 'disposition'. It is used in Aristotle to denote those aspects of one's character that, through appropriate moral training, develop into virtues. ἦθος is related to the adjective ἠθικός denoting someone or something that relates to disposition, e.g., a philosophical study on character.[1] 2 Ethics is concerned with what is good for individuals and society. It involves developing, systematizing, defending, and recommending concepts of right and wrong behaviour. The Hippocratic Oath (c.

  • Foundations for Ethics
    SECTION I Foundations for Ethics Change happens whether we want it or not. ▸ Introduction ealth care is in a constant state of change and challenge, which is likely to continue into its future. Therefore, this quote from the ancient philosopher, Heraclitus, rings true Hfor healthcare administrators (HCAs). In this introduction, consider an example of how change can affect care and its ethics. For example, the rapid growth of technology promises more efficient and effective care along with the ability to treat health conditions and improve outcomes. Of course, technology’s impressive outcomes will also bring challenges for health administrators in the areas of finance, staffing, and patient demands. How does this climate of change affect the HCA’s ability to pro- vide both fiscally sound and ethics- based health care? First, HCAs need to continue providing an environment where patients receive both appropriate and compassionate care. In addition, they must create, adapt, and support the complex healthcare system structure that responds to change. As stewards of current and future resources, HCAs are required to protect these resources and ensure that they are used ethically. These serious responsibilities can only increase in this epoch of change. To address these concerns, HCAs must also be prepared to go beyond patient care. They must respond to the business needs of health care with respect to the patient, staff members, organization, © Panuwat Dangsungnoen/EyeEm/Getty Images Dangsungnoen/EyeEm/Getty © Panuwat and the community. This challenge requires HCAs to have a base in ethics and apply their professional knowledge and skills. In addition, these challenges mandate a deeper application of ethics through appropriate behaviors that maintain both personal integrity and that of their organizations.

  • Heidegger and the Ethics of Care
    Heidegger and the ethics of care John Paley MA Principal Research Fellow, University of Luton Original paper Abstract The claim that, in some nontrivial sense, nursing can be identified with caring has prompted a search for the philosophical foundations of care in the nursing literature.Although the ethics of care was initially associated with Gilligan’s ‘different voice’, there has more recently been an attempt – led principally by Benner – to displace the gender perspective with a Heideggerian one, even if Kant is the figure to whom both Gilligan and Benner appear most irretrievably opposed.This paper represents the first half of a double-edged project: initially, to point out that Heidegger explicitly disowns any ethical implications for his ontological thinking, and to argue that no ethical theory (including an ethics of care) can be derived from Being and Time; and then to argue that Kant’s categorical imperative is not only compatible with the ethics of care but actively entails it. In this, Heideggerian, part of the argument, I consider three attempts to wrest an ethics from Being and Time – those of Benner, Olafson and Guignon – suggesting that,for different reasons,they all fail. Benner systematically confuses the ontological with the ontic, not recog- nizing that care, concern and solicitude have ‘deficient’ modes as well as positive ones, and that Heidegger’s ontology retrieves the possibility of an ethics-in-general without at any point implying an ethics-in-particular (whether of care or justice). Olafson does recognize this, and to that extent admits his failure,but his efforts to amplify Heidegger’s thought in such a way as to generate an ethical theory involve both the importing of Kantian premises, and an appeal to some rather doubtful empirical observations.

  • Prisca Ethics Conf Paper-Edit2
    Fostering sustainable development through an ethics of care Introduction Rules alone don’t necessarily change people. Sustainable habits need to be formed which can hold people personally accountable and responsible even when the leader or circumstance changes. Advocates of Care Ethics (those who give priority to the personal dimension of virtues including social virtues) see caring as the key ethical ideal, and recommend that we attend to the concrete needs of those who are close to us. Care ethicists want to draw our attention to the fact that human beings, by their very nature, are relational beings. Being attentive to this feature of human beings – and being conscientiously aware of it – moves our ethical thinking in a different direction. This paper seeks to explore the interface between sustainable development and the ethics of care as a way of fostering true sustainable development by University students. Does care ethics have social and political implications? For Kenya, what does it mean realistically develop in a sustainable manner? According to the World Bank, in 2005 there were 1.4 billion people living below the poverty line (living on less than $1.25 a day), which is more than a quarter of the developing world’s population, and 439 million more people living in extreme poverty than previously estimated. This level of poverty, is hard for citizens of the industrial world to comprehend (do the citizens of the developing world comprehend it and how are we tackling it?). In 2007, development aid from the Group of 8 (G8) industrialized nations amounted to $62 billion.

    LEADERSHIP, MORALITY AND ETHICS: DEVELOPING A PRACTICAL MODEL FOR MORAL DECISION-MAKING Alfred W. Kaszniak 1,3, Cynda H. Rushton 2, & Joan Halifax 3 1 University of Arizona Tucson, Arizona 2 Johns Hopkins University Baltimore, Maryland 3 Upaya Institute Santa Fe, New Mexico Kaszniak, A.W., Rushton, C.H., & Halifax, J. (2018). Leadership, morality and ethics: Developing a practical model for moral decision-making. MindRxiv. April 17. mindrxiv.org/8qby6. DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/8QBY6 Introduction: Principled and authentic leadership in all sectors of society, including health, education, business, and finance, requires fundamental shifts in understanding how moral discernment operates. Cultivating leaders who exemplify integrity necessitates grounding in pro-social values, character formation, ethical principles, and contemplative practices that enhance moral decision-making and engaged moral action. The present paper is the product of collaboration between a neuroscientist, an ethicist, and a contemplative exploring issues around leadership, morality, and ethics. It is an exploration on how people in roles of responsibility can better understand how to engage in discernment processes with more awareness and a deeper sense of responsibility for others and themselves. It has been written in a global climate where a practical understanding of how moral decision-making works is essential in this time when there can seem to be an increasing moral vacuum in leadership. The meanings of the words morals and ethics overlap in common usage, though sometimes conflicting distinctions are drawn by philosophers and other scholars. One simple way of understanding the distinction is that, “Broadly speaking, morals are individual principles of right and wrong, and a system of ethics deals with sets of those principles.” <http://www.randomhouse.com/wotd/index.pperl?date=20010813> The term ethics is often used in reference to the philosophical study of morality.
