Feminist Family Therapy needs a new way to address the imbalance of
power that persists in relationships between the sexes. This study
is concerned to expand the feminist critique of the
psychotherapeutic discipline of Family Therapy by the application
of an ecofeminist ethic of care to the theory and practice of the
field. This book traces the connection of women and nature
throughout the history of Western, rationalist thought and outlines
the possibilities for the re-conceptualization of the categories of
'reason' and 'nature'. The resulting ethical system both critiques
and expands traditional and feminist ethics. It is suggested that
justice and care are distinct modes of moral reasoning which
nonetheless function in a dialectical relationship, one that can
directly address the "gender dilemma." An ecofeminist model of
family therapy utilizes not only reason and justice but also nature
and care to reshape a therapeutic conversation which has equality
as its goal.This book is not only for psychotherapists, students of
gender studies and feminist ethicists but also for women and men
who wish to move from a troubled relationship to one that is
emotionally satisfying.
