ISBN-13: 978-0-19-531475-5, ISBN: 0-19-531475-1

"Feminist and critical race theorists alike have long acknowledged the "intersection" of gender and race difference; it is by now a truism that the ways we become boys and girls, men and women, cannot be disentangled from the ways we become white or Black men and women, Asian or Latino boys and girls. And yet, even as many have sought to attend to this intersection of difference, most critical treatments focus finally either on the prod ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-7425-1363-1, ISBN: 0-7425-1363-7

"All people spend a considerable portion of their lives either as dependents or the caretakers of dependents. The fact of human dependency--a function of youth, severe illness, disability, or frail old age--marks our lives, not only as those who are cared for, but as those who engage in the work of caring. In spite of the time, energy and resources-material and emotional, social and individual-that dependency care requires, these concern ..."

"Ellen. K. Feder. Eva. Feder. Kittay. Simone de Beauvoir, speaking of the limitations of women's freedom and equality, wrote: “Now, what peculiarly signalizes the situation of woman is that she—a free and autonomous being like all human creatures—nevertheless finds herself living in a world where men compel her to assume the status of the Other.” Given women's dependence on men——economic, social, legal, political, and for the consti ..."

"Macht.” When Derrida's reading of Nietzsche is translated into German, Nietzsche's various statements about women are all grouped under the word “ Frau.” Even though the statements do not all use that noun.

In his 1980 reading of the fourlanguage edition of ..."
