Feminist Interpretations of John Rawls by Ruth Abbey

A collection of essays that explore the philosophy and political theory of John Rawls from a variety of feminist perspectives.

“This volume provides readers with a series of diverse, refreshingly open-minded, and very insightful feminist perspectives on the works of John RawlsThe essays are impressive on their own. Together they expand the parameters of feminist philosophy.”

—Marion Smiley, Brandeis University


“This is an extensive and very important collection that covers both the feminist potential of Rawls’s theory and the major trends in liberal feminism. The emergence of feminism as a public political philosophy will owe a great deal to Ruth Abbey’s careful and balanced presentation and to her choice of thought-provoking contributors who all engage in serious critical debates with Rawls’s main conceptions.”

—Catherine Audard, London School of Economics

Ruth Abbey is Professor of Political Science at the University of Notre Dame.
