Feminist Ethics And Everyday Inequalities, Samantha Brennan
Feminist Ethics And Everyday Inequalities, Samantha Brennan
Samantha Brennan
How should feminist philosophers regard the inequalities that structure the lives of women? Some of these inequalities are trivial and others are not; together they form a framework of unequal treatment that shapes women's lives. This paper asks what priority we should give inequalities that affect women; it critically analyzes Claudia Card's view that feminists ought to give evils priority. Sometimes ending gender-based inequalities is the best route to eliminating gender-based evil.
