Raising Responsibility: Motherhood and Moral Luck
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 March 2020
Abstract
This paper extends Claudia Card's account of agency in the face of moral luck in order to theoretically ground the activities of feminist mothers who endeavor to raise responsible human beings. The paper addresses those who mother in gray areas—areas where mothers are victims of the evils of the institution of motherhood while having authority and influence over their children.
