This volume is the first to use insights from recent feminist theory on the ethic of care to study the slow progress women have made toward political equality.Using empirical case-study materials, including her own interviews with female politicians, Mackay examines care as both a political practice and a political idea, using it to explain the current situation with regard to women's representation and to offer a prescription and resource for change.
