A Feminist Ethics of Care
​
A feminist ethics of care provides a transformative way of thinking about care – the practices that maintain, continue, and repair our world(s) (Tronto 1993) – and the relationships, values, contexts, and power structures that constitute care.
​
Feminist geographies of care
​
This literature raises important questions about how care is made, or re-made, across spaces and over time, as different practices, bodies, emotions, and materials interact in the giving and receiving of care
​
Imagining caring futures in the city
​
Whether acknowledged or not, care is always already embedded within the practices, materials, relations, and structures that come together to make the city. This literature draws on feminist conceptions of care to theorize possibilities of caring cities
​
Everyday practices of care
​
This scholarship draws from a range of disciplines and examines ‘small acts, kind words’, and the often-casual and informal practices that create more caring comm-unities. It looks at seed saving in urban gardens, care in cafés, community kitchens and other places and practices of care.
