- Description
- In this work Marty Kheel offers an ecofeminist perspective on nature ethics. She argues that the influential nature theorists whose work se examines represent a masculinist orientation that devalues concern for individual animals. Drawing on feminist theories, such as an ethic of care, inspired by educational psychologist Casrol Gilligan she seeks to heal the divisions among movements and philosophies of feminism, animal advocacy, environmental ethics and holistic health .
