Product Information

Subjection and Subjectivity offers an account of moral subjectivity and moral reflection designed to meet the needs of feminism as well as other emancipatory movements. Diana Tietjens Meyers argues that impartial reason - the approach to moral reflection which has dominated 20th century Anglo-American philosophy and judicial reasoning - is inadequate for addressing real world injustices. Dealing with problems of group-based social exclusion requires empathy with others. But empathy often becomes distorted by prejudicial attitudes which may be publicly condemned but continue to be transmitted through cultural figurations. Meyers argues that it is a mistake to view the moral subject as independent, transparent and rational. Instead, she presents a picture of a heterogeneous and pluralistic subject, one that is defined by ties to other people, liable to misunderstand its own motives, and in need of a repertory of strategies for purposes of moral reflection.
