QC The Rise of Feminist Ethics Discussion

This week I provide a briefer prompt, as you have been doing weekly posts for a while now, and you know how they work. You can find your own concepts to focus attention on.

That said, this might be a week when you focus attention on one of the quotations Vaughn uses to support his points. For example:

• The lengthy two-part quotation from Alison M. Jaggar on pages 148-149.
• The long quotation from Virginia Held on page 152. (Note: for a brief summary of Held’s version of the ethics of care, see above)

There are some unfamiliar words in the Jaggar quotation, which you will probably need to look up; that is, if you decide to write about her commentary. Here is a list:

hierarchy

transcendence

asceticism

immanence

Here are the Review Questions you can fall back on, if stuck for a topic for your post this week:
