All people spend a considerable portion of their lives either as
dependents or the caretakers of dependents. The fact of human
dependency-a function of youth, severe illness, disability, or
frail old age-marks our lives, not only as those who are cared for,
but as those who engage in the work of caring. In spite of the
time, energy and resources-material and emotional, social and
individual-that dependency care requires, these concerns rarely
enter into philosophical, legal, and political discussions. In The
Subject of Care, feminist scholars consider how acknowledgement of
the fact of dependency changes our conceptions of law, political
theory, and morality, as well as our very conceptions of self.
Contributors develop feminist understandings of dependency,
reassessing the place dependency occupies in our lives and in a
just social order.
