In this major book, the author, one of the most innovative and influential philosophical voices of our time, proposes a new kind of feminism that is genuinely international. She argues for an ethical underpinning to all thought about development planning and public policy, and dramatically moves beyond the abstractions of economists and philosophers to embed thought about justice in the concrete reality of the struggle of poor women. |
