In this lecture/discussion video from my Spring 2012 Ethics classes at Marist College, we begin our discussions of the Ethics of Care moral theory by looking at a now-classic article, Virginia Held's Feminist Transformations of Moral Theory. We discuss in particular women's past near-exclusion from moral theory, whether moral theory needs to be radically revised in the present, and some of the main features of the Ethics of Care

today in Ethics classes, we start on a week devoted to the Ethics of Care
good points. for me the biggest changes for women are that there are more of them and they want to be paid for their work. i think that as a class we are still oppressed- even those women who consider themselves feminist in that they define themselves so narrowly or maybe it just seems that way-because sex is just one way of expressing our corpuscles! just think that we have devised new forms of slavery in lieu of the old ways and call ourselves free in order to sound progressive.
Well, I think women wanted to be paid for their work in Held's heyday -- just 20 years ago. I'd agree with the notion of "devis[ing] new forms of slavery in lieu of the old ways and call ourselves free in order to sound progressive" -- a problematic that keeps on popping up over and over again throughout the history of social change and efforts at "progress".
