Lecture on Feminist Ethics by Professor Sarah Clark Miller

25:54 The lecture starts

The aim of this lecture is to introduce the audience to the intriguing complexity of feminist ethics. Professor Miller first investigates how the COVID-19 pandemic has brought several elements of feminist ethics to the forefront of public thought and then navigates how feminist ethicists have both critical and creative aims in their theoretical and practical endeavours. The lecture also considers some key feminist ethical themes and sketches the outlines of a few varieties of feminist ethical thought.
