The collection examines the ways in which the emerging
interdisciplinary study of care provokes a reassessment of the
connections and disjuncture between care and governance, ethics,
and public, personal and professional identities. Evolving from a
project coordinated by the Cambridge Socio-Legal Group, Spaces of
Care brings together leading international scholars to articulate
what we may consider to be a useful analytic of care. Lawyers,
anthropologists, sociologists and criminologists reflect on
specific aspects of conceptualising caring relations in 'spaces'.
These spaces include: communities of care and abandonment;
self-care and kinship care; spaces as 'gaps' in care; the meanings
of marketised care; and the ways in which care is constructed and
constrained in different ways in venues such as homes, prisons,
workplaces and virtual spaces. Common themes include temporality
(historical specificity) and the dynamics of care across time and
place; subjectivity (including different experiences of care); the
economies of care (including the commodification of care; public
and private manifestations of care; privatised 'care'); disruptions
of care (which generate vulnerabilities with regard to continuities
of care); eligibility (those deemed to be deserving and undeserving
of care); relationalities of care (collective and individual agency
in caring relations, kinship care), and technologies and
imaginaries of care (as in new notions of care forged by those in
online virtual worlds such as Second Life).
