The combination of a feminist care ethics and pragmatism can be very effective in addressing the challenges posed by a fragmented and polarized society, not only in Slovakia but also globally. The author connects her individual experience at the level of interpersonal relations with the collective experience of fragmented and polarized Slovak society to explore the possibilities of caring for intergenerational relationships. Drawing on the concepts of care ethics-common caring practices, embodied care and caring spaces-she seeks to understand the causes and factors of paralysis in caring practices and the possibilities of overcoming it at both the micro and macro levels. The combination of philosophy and literature in teaching philosophy is presented as an alternative caring space providing cognitive, emotional and affective resources for the renewal and repair of weakened or broken caring relations.

By emphasising the role of concepts like social status, power and respect, all relational egalitarians seek to demonstrate that there is more to the political concept of equality than the distribution of goods. While there is a broad consensus on the nature of equality, however, the nature of justice is a matter of internal dispute. The aim of this paper is to disentangle these argumentative threads, building on work in early relational egalitarian scholarship to develop a relational approach to justice, both distinct from the distributive approach to justice and isolated from the relational approach to equality. In doing so, I reveal possible and sometimes surprising alliances between relational egalitarians and other scholars on the nature of justice.

State-building in South Korea since liberation in 1945 has seen some successes. However, from a care perspective—considering that women and families bear the primary burden of care responsibilities, the discrimination and disadvantages caregivers face both at home and in the labor market, and the reality that few are willing to engage in marriage, childbirth, or caregiving—it is challenging to evaluate the overall success of state-building in South Korea to date. This article highlights the diverse temporalities that have emerged in modern state-building in South Korea since 1945 and examines how these various temporalities serve as structural constraints on care. Amid the compressed timelines of state-building, I analyze how care is systematically overlooked, silenced, and marginalized; how it is devalued; how it is relegated to women’s and family work; and how caregivers experience discrimination and disadvantages, alongside the ideologies, norms, and socio-economic and political conditions and circumstances that contribute to these issues.

Performative care for victims of gender-based violence in Tanzania through established socio-cultural gendered policies that reinforce the disproportionate care labor that women activists carry. Women's rights activists historically sustain the care labor of protecting young girls from various forms of abuse and violence, in Tanzania, this abuse is embedded within Tanzania's constitution under the Law on Marriage Act of 1971, sections 13 and 17 that upholds the age of consent for Tanzanian girls at fourteen years or fifteen years respectively. In this chapter, I address the cost of harmful cultural or religious practices that sustain and reinforce violence against young girls in Tanzania. I explore the challenges of navigation justice in systemic heteropatriarchal societies and the exhausting but rewarding care burden of protecting young girls by women's rights activist groups or legal civil society organizations. My work adds to the voices of activists, scholars, victims, and survivors to explicitly emphasize the dangers that young girls face in societies that see children as objects for masculine domination and pleasure.

The article specifies the human being based on the respiratory cycle, referring to the etymology of the word "spirit". This word shares its root with the French word respiration ("breathing") as well as the verb "to inspire," suggesting breath and animation. Human temporality is made up of organic rhythmicity, from a weighing body that experiences itself as inscribed in timethis is the authentic meaning of the word "to exist": to come from nowhere, without time, to somewhere, at some time. This article questions the compatibility between the demand for temporal efficiency, characteristic of the modern industrial age and the technophile ideology of communication, and the "service society" which purports to be more "caring" than the industrial one. Highlighting the suppression of the passage of time characteristic of the ideology of communication, where "time" is frozen in a self-reproducing present with no past or future, the author asserts that humane care is radically incompatible with a society that subsumes humanity, inscribed in time and in need of breath, under the ideology of a perpetual present. It is precisely on the basis of what specifies the human, namely breathing and desire, that the author proposes to consider how care might be possible in an ultra-technologized world. Drawing on an imaginary of movement and inspiration/aspiration/breathing deployed in choreographic performances and practices, the author invites the reader, as Simone Weil did, to substitute rhythm for cadence, to insert slowness into speed, and to favor the flow of time in a human reality that has become unbearable by dint of "modernization". In so doing, we must reconsider head-on the fate that binds us, namely death, which no stasis in a perpetual present can eliminate, and which the metaphor of a risk of social necrosis invites us to reconsider. Accepting the passage of time, giving death back its face, is costly; but it's at this price that time can regain its humanizing value, as a sine qua non component of care.

This article juxtaposes different and conflicting temporalities as configured in the context of care and caring. Weaving together (1) an autobiographical narrative in which I share parts of my own breast cancer journey with (2) research with men employed as care workers in Australia, I attempt to get at how differentially experienced temporal densities, trajectories, and orientations can be found when receiving and giving care. The slow and deep time of experiencing sickness, and the protective, forgetful time induced by medical traumaboth often perceived as nonlinear time-, clash with the neoliberal, sped-up, linear temporality of the late-capitalist medical industrial complex; leaving care workers and cared-for squeezed between temporalities that can be, and are, at odds with each other. The theoretical framing holding my consideration of these different 'kinds' of time, is a composite of feminist care ethics scholarship, critical time studies and the literary work by the Aboriginal author and scholar Mykaela Saunders. Specifically, I draw on Saunders's short story 'Buried time', in which she connects with Aboriginal deep time and writes the abolition of colonial clock time into being. Taking a cue from Saunders narrative, I maintain that the temporalities of colonial/racial capitalism evince segmentation, fragmentation, and, ultimately, destruction. This is a mechanistic time not suitable for human and more-than-human life's flourishing (that includes living and dying as well as possible); as such, it is a temporality that stands against the relational paradigms of care theory.

Through a critical auto-ethnographic account of miscarriage and grief, I explore what it means to inherit Islam as a tradition through care-based modes of knowing. Through Muslim-feminist theorizing, I blend Quranic narratives of care with maternal lineages of Islam I have inherited through care, that not only guide how I think about care Islamically, but also, how I practice care in my relations as a Muslim. I also illustrate the value of intertextuality of care as it is experienced across lived time, and across generations, within systems of kin and the need to let go of monolithic senses of tradition, and moral epistemology, within our practice of comparative care ethics. I draw a parallel between colonial, and white-orientated modes of knowing Muslims, and Islam, and grounded care-based modes of knowing by which we come to know and inhabit our practices of Islam in caring as, and being cared for , as Muslims

Black and Latina female educators have for centuries prepared children of color to resist dehumanization, claim full citizenship, and transform oppression through culturally specific Critical Feminist Ethics of Care. In 2018, I detailed a Revolucionista Ethic of Care specific to the needs and strengths of Mexican/Mexican American (Mexicanx/a/o) youth which offers a subterraneous social justice ethic of care through the curriculum and pedagogy of four female Spanish-speaking New Mexican (Nuevomexicana) and Mexican American (Mexicana) educators. Through this land-based Chicana Feminist Testimonio Methodology, I unearth a resistant, healing Critical Feminist Ethic of Care framework for (Nuevo)Mexicana/o children and communities which enriches the field of Care scholarship through its embodied, land-based epistemologies. I explore the ways in which four (Nuevo)Mexicana educators operationalize play and humor within their Ethic of Care to 1) open access to a mythic time/space continuum wherein they may access the historical and ongoing wounds of injustice fueling them, 2) gleefully travel to students' multiple worlds, and 3) forge liminal spaces of joy for Mexicanx/a/o youth to shape futures of thriving. This work offers ancient, practiced tools of resistance and healing in this new and yet historicized moment of racialized hostility and hate against Communities of Color in the United States.

Introduction Caring and Time by Muarice Hamington

2025, Fandom | Culture | Research

The Korean pop supergroup BTS is well-known for breaking records, winning awards, and garnering the dedication of a massive global fandom known as ARMY. Research on BTS and the fandom is emerging, articulating a need for a deeper understanding of how BTS influences ARMY. This paper draws on the concept of the ethics of care, delving into how BTS embodies care and how ARMY reflects those expressions of care. Through a detailed analysis of BTS’s content and public actions, this paper shows how BTS use their lyrics, livestreams, social media, and behind-the-scenes video content to provide care to each other, ARMY, and the world. Similarly, ARMY’s care is directed back to BTS via support for their music, as well as toward other members of ARMY by providing services to the fandom. ARMY extends its care to the world by participating in charity projects in response to BTS’s own philanthropic actions. The ethics of care acts as a lens for better understanding both BTS’s success and ARMY’s practices, showing us how fandoms can be valuable spaces for nurturing caring relationships, helping fans improve their own community, and creating opportunities to contribute to the betterment of society.

2025, philoSOPHIA: A Journal of Continental Feminism

This essay draws from recent trans films to map a social atmosphere of anti-trans conversion beyond the discrete set of social, medical, and psychiatric practices normally discussed in this context. To explain this phenomenon, we introduce a permeating organizational maxim of cis society we refer to as the Silenic imperative: that it is best to not live as trans, and second best to cease living as trans as soon as possible. The People's Joker and I Saw the TV Glow depict this permeating atmosphere of conversion within mass culture, constituted by and constitutive of spaces in which trans existence is systematically threatened and repressed. By staging atmospheres of conversion, both films likewise stage tactics of trans resistance that open new spaces for trans sociality. We consider how these films frame attempts to navigate and resist atmospheres of conversion, considering trans-for-trans (t4t) sociality as a site of both escape and failure. We conclude by considering trans cinema itself as a site of tactics against atmospheres of anti-trans conversion in our own world and as a source for life-sustaining sociality. This is especially important within the contemporary atmosphere of cis society and its attempts to suffuse and snuff out all trans life. The essay emerged from a mutual collaboration that included hosting trans films at a local arts non-profit. Co-written with Isobel Bess.

Filial piety is a central virtue of Confucian ethics and widely viewed as an important part of what it means to be(come) Chinese. Confucian scholars emphasize the cultivation of filial piety (love and respect for parents) while assuming that parental love for children is innate. But this traditional view has led to the deformation of filial piety and twisted requests for parental love in both past and present-day China. In contrast, I will argue that long-lasting parental love also requires moral eort to become a virtue and that filial piety for the modern world cannot be morally justified without this form of parental love.

This study aims at investigating Sally Rooney's short story Mr Salary (2019). The complexities around human relationships have always interested Rooney, who asserted that "there is a shared knowledge that relationship forms of the past were not actually suited for everyone" (London Review Bookshop, 2019: 16:11). This is especially true considering the "cultural moment where certainties around relationships have deteriorated slightly" (London Review Bookshop, 2019: 17:17). In this regard, my analysis will develop under two key points. The first is Rooney's depiction, in Mr Salary, of transactional relationships between the two protagonists, Sukie and Nathan, and between Sukie and her father, Frank, in the face of the economic changes brought about by the Celtic Tiger and post-Crash periods in Ireland. To make this point I will resort to the works of Barros del Río (2022), Carregal Romero ( ), among others. The second point will focus on issues related to language, silence and (hindered) communication among the characters in Mr Salary by means of Fredric Jameson's (1983) notion of schizophrenia, not in the clinical sense, but as a tool derived from cultural theory. According to Jameson, Este estudio tiene como objetivo investigar el cuento Mr Salary (2019), de Sally Rooney.

Feminist theories of care ethics point out that vulnerability and dependence are an inherent part of caring relationships, while also noting that these aspects and the sense of inequality that stems from them invariably enable the abuse of power. At the same time, Tronto (2013) argues that the best form of care is non-hegemonic democratic care. How can care be provided in a non-hegemonic and democratic way in situations where actors are characterized by their mutual inequality and their mutual dependence and vulnerability? The author argues that equality is not sufficient for sustainable nonhegemonic care and that inequality is not necessarily connected with the abuse of power in caring relations. The responsiveness, both at the individual and institutional levels, she considers as a necessary condition for democratic care based on inclusiveness.

RESUMO Comumente nos reportamos às práticas de cuidado como ações que compõem o núcleo de uma boa ação. Neste sentido, pessoas cuidadosas seriam aquelas que estariam praticando boas ações e, consequentemente, seriam boas. Difícil ou raramente avaliamos uma prática de cuidado como sendo fruto de uma ação justa. Neste artigo procuraremos problematizar os alicerces filosóficos que fundamentaram uma separação analítica entre o agir cuidadoso e a ação justa, a partir de olhares ecofeministas. Com isso, buscar-se-á refletir sobre os aspectos de gênero que não somente forjaram uma separação entre cuidado e justiça, mas também retiraram da cena da justiça o agir cuidadoso, deslocando não por acaso das teorias da justiça aspectos associados ao que se considerou e naturalizou como pertencente às "práticas femininas". Por fim, defenderemos a necessidade do cuidado para um ecofeminismo engajado como elemento fundamental para uma concepção mais alargada de justiça social, capaz de nos comprometer com as demandas de outras realidades, seres e comunidades. Palavras chave: cuidado, ecofeminismo, justiça.

RESUMO: O desenvolvimento de um projeto ético-político ecofeminista, que rompe com os padrões sistemáticos de opressões e, na dimensão propositiva, constrói relações éticas e justas em relação aos humanos, aos animais e a natureza, constitui-se, necessariamente, como um projeto interdisciplinar. Por isso, neste artigo nos propomos a pensar na construção de uma epistemologia ecofeminista, a fim de compreender como é possível 'ouvir' os animais, entender suas experiências e estabelecer relações que contribuam para o florescimento e desenvolvimento da vida dos seres de diferentes espécies. Nesse sentido, partimos da injustiça na produção do conhecimento, envolvendo as críticas feministas ao androcentrismo e ao antropocentrismo presentes nessa produção. Com base na compreensão feminista da injustiça epistêmica, traçamos em seguida os elementos centrais para uma epistemologia ecofeminista, ou seja, desenvolvemos uma concepção de justiça plural que inclua as vozes dos animais não humanos a partir da 'perspectiva dos funcionamentos', elaborada pela filósofa Maria Clara Dias.

2025, Caring Infrastructures. Transforming the Arts through Feminist Curating

Care has become a trend in the art field, but much of the recent curatorial focus seems to be limited to symbolic gestures through exhibitions and public programming. These efforts, however, have led to few (infra)structural changes. The need remains for bringing about fair working conditions, gender equity, and support structures for caregivers and care-receivers. In response, Sascia Bailer redefines »curatorial care« as an infrastructural practice grounded in feminist care ethics that provides »care for presence« for diverse audiences. Drawing from socially engaged curatorial and artistic practices, she offers hands-on propositions for constructing caring infrastructures and provides a micro-political roadmap for curating with care.

2025, Direitos da Natureza e Educação Ecológica

A destruição da natureza na sociedade capitalista e a invisibilização e subordinação de pessoas racializadas e mulheres nas sociedades racistas e patriarcais encontram raízes comuns, provém de uma cultura que coloca uma parede entre os seres humanos e o resto dos seres vivos. Esses grupos, assim como natureza e os animais, são objetificados, e estão sujeitos ao controle de sua reprodução. Os seres não humanos, que não se encaixam no estereótipo eurocêntrico de humanidade, e o meio ambiente são tratados como objetos à disposição do ser humano e do seu sistema para gerar lucro e benefícios próprios. Dessa forma, neste capítulo, tem-se como objetivo ampliar o escopo da discussão sobre a crise ambiental, trazendo à tona perspectivas muitas vezes subestimadas, mas que são fundamentais: o ecofeminismo decolonial e o antirracismo. Buscamos ir além das narrativas tradicionais e explorar como esses recortes essenciais desempenham um papel fundamental na configuração de novos paradigmas para lidar com os desafios ambientais que enfrentamos atualmente.

2025, Classical Antiquity

This article investigates the meaning and uses of the concept epimeleia, a term denoting notions of care, attention, and dedication in Xenophon’s Socratic ethics. Whereas care has been a productive concept in feminist and environmental ethics, the ancient Greek concept epimeleia has been largely studied only in its narrow application to the self (epimeleia heautou). I argue that a different aspect of this concept plays a largely overlooked role in Xenophon, where it is a key element in the psychology of action. Epimeleia denotes not merely an attitude or a kind of action, but a psychological capacity that facilitates attunement and attention to objects, people, and tasks, and the investment of mental and physical effort to enhancing them. Xenophon’s Socrates, I argue, saw this capacity necessary for the acquisition of practical knowledge, for practical pursuits, as well as for creating social cohesion in collective enterprises such as households, armies, and states.

Um dos grandes debates suscitados contemporaneamente está relacionado a questão do cânone filosófico, onde a ausência das mulheres na filosofia pode ser facilmente constatada. Mesmo excluídas et silenciadas. As Pensadoras fizeram parte da história da filosofia. ou seja, a filosofia não foi e nem é feita apenas por homens. Desse modo, dar visibilidade ao aspecto metodológico e à abordagem da história da filosofia a partir d’As Pensadoras não pretende apenas reajustar a história da filosofia, mas, sobretudo, busca recuperar as vozes invisibilizadas das mulheres, ressaltando sua importância para o fazer filosófico. Tal esforço se faz necessário tanto na universidade como no ensino médio. Sendo assim, o "Dossiê As Pensadoras" visa constituir uma ferramenta pedagógica e de leitura, com o intuito de apresentar algumas pensadoras e as suas contribuições para o público de alunos e alunas do ensino médio, buscando preencher, de algum modo, a grande lacuna existente nos materiais didáticos voltados a esse público no que diz respeito à apresentação de filósofas e pensadoras de áreas afins. Tornar visível o pensamento das mulheres na Filosofia, tanto na universidade como no ensino médio: esse é o principal propósito do “Dossiê As Pensadoras”.

2025, Encounters in Theory and History of Education

En su libro Happiness and Education (2003) Noddings ofrece pistas para repensar los objetivos de la educación y el papel que la búsqueda de la felicidad debe desempeñar entre ellos. En su análisis de las políticas educativas actuales, basadas en estándares, éstas no sólo están lejos de cumplir con sus objetivos, sino que además están lejos de cumplir con los requisitos de una democracia. Noddings llega a la conclusión de que los currículos educativos deben fomentar la búsqueda de la felicidad si quieren asegurar el cumplimiento de esta doble tarea. Para ello se apoya en los trabajos de los pragmatistas James y Dewey cuyos planteamientos ofrecen la posibilidad de superar la crítica a la crisis en la que se encuentra la educación según los términos establecidos por Arendt, en la medida en que se apoyan en la poética del espacio de Bachelard.

Despite extensive scholarly attention, the meaning of 'gender' remains contested. This dissertation advances a phenomenological Thomistic account, positing gender as the self-aware relationship between the phenomenal 'I' and its living body that is characterised by a dynamism between biological sex, the rational soul, and socio-cultural contexts. Critiquing gender essentialism and social constructivism as products of dualistic and monistic anthropologies, I argue that Edith Stein's concept of Entfaltung (unfolding) reveals gender to be an experience unique to the human person as embodied spirit, lived in tension with internal and external otherness. By synthesising Stein's phenomenology and W. Norris Clarke's metaphysics of personhood, I demonstrate how gender expression transcends solipsism, requiring engagement with intersubjective horizons. This framework not only counters Judith Butler's performative model but also offers bioethical insights for addressing gender dysphoria, advocating a relational understanding of identity rooted in MacIntyre's ethics of dependence.

2025, Inclusão e Gênero

Progresso e desenvolvimento são palavras caras ao capitalismo e aos
processos coloniais que ainda persistem. A natureza é vista como recurso e, contrariando Nêgo Bispo (2023), não devolvem à terra o que ela deu de bom grado. Neste contexto, as mulheres têm vivenciado as consequências do “progresso” diretamente em seus corpos. Este trabalho tem como objetivo geral explorar a organização de práticas feministas de resistência em prol do Bem Viver e, especificamente, pretende compreender a correlação entre as violências cometidas contra a natureza e contra as mulheres, verificar a dinâmica e as formas de resistências femininas contra o avanço da degradação ambiental, e analisar os ecofeminismos como prática feminista
em defesa da terra-corpo-território (Kab’nal, 2010). A pesquisa tem natureza exploratória e bibliográfica, a fim de aprofundar aspectos das teorias ecofeministas e sua correlação com o conceito de (re) patriarcalização.
Como resultado, recomenda-se a inclusão da perspectiva de gênero, sobretudo dos ecofeminismos, quando da proposição de políticas públicas que protejam mulheres nos casos de degradação ambiental.

The development of computer use in the field of conceptual design has brought doubts and at the same time concerns regarding the maintaining of the significantrole of hand drawings in the design process. In other words, advances in computer-aided design over time have influenced the attitudes and working methods of contemprory designers in addressing problems. According to some designers of the current generation, computers can now assume the traditional role of hand drawings in the design process. This view contrasts with that of expert designers who assert that hand drawings still retain a special place in the design process. The aim of this research is to address the question of which of the two tools, manual or digital, is more suitable for problem solving in the early stages of design. By reviewing past studies and analyzing texts using content analysis tables, we sought to provide a comparative assessment of the ability of each tool to enhance the cognitive levels of the design process. The results of our work indicate that computer tools, including modeling programs and parametric design, despite their recent advancements in supporting the initial stages of design, do not perform as effectively hand drawings in terms of conceptualization and ease of discovery. This phenomenoncan be attributed to the superior capacity of hand drawings (sketch) in ambiguity as well as the designer's focus on the level of knowledge rather than the level of object production rules or algorithms when utilizing them. However, Computer drawing tools are capable of providing more accurate visualization than hand drawings, which can be advantageous in more structured problems. This significant finding suggests that the ability of a tool to improve cognitive levels in the conceptual process is not solely dependent on the tool itself, but it is also influenced by a network of constraints (variables) such as the type of problem, the degree of determination and simplicity of the problem, the interactivity of the tool, time constraints, Interpretation (team or individual design), designer's skill, designer's expertise and numerous other factors. These variables were derived from previous studies. In fact, there are variables related to design context that play a crucial role in the development of the design process. A change in any of these constraints can affect the outcomes of the design process. Such a framework criticizes previous studies that have primarily focused onthe influence of the "instrumental ability" variable. Based on this, a model of the impact of intervening variables on the design situation and its relationship with the levels of knowledge was proposed. This hypothesis can inform the direction of future research design studies, emphasizing that the impact of limitations should be considered in subsequent empirical investigations.

2025, Les vulnérabilités liées à la génomique

2025

Humans are social animals. Human being seeks company, recognition and acceptance and without it life can be bleak, tedious and lonely. Friendship is important for emotional, practical and even medical reasons. There are so many components which play a pivotal role for friendship. In Bengal, Perhaps in India the arena of friendship primarily depends on 'Race-Religion-Class-Caste-gender' but in perspective of disabilities, it also depends upon physical and mental disabilities. Worldwide scenario of disabled people significantly changed since the 1980s. Mainstreaming of disability, facilitated by policy framing, law and social attitude, is an important contributing factor in this regard. There are three clear layers about world of friendship with visible disabilities such as friendship between persons with disabilities -without disabilities, friendship within disabled people and friendship within homogenous group of disability. There are so many different phenomena for making friendship within disabilities. In ancient Greek Classical Age, Aristotle wrote about the politics of friendship. He argued that 'my friend is not of my friend at all', alluding to people with disabilities. The politics of friendship among disabled people is not easy to put it mildly. There are various kinds of discriminations like rural-urban divide, caste, religion, class, gender and category of disabilities. Friendship…. The PwD (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act (1995) and The Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act (2016) emphasizes on the inclusion of disabilities. They should be given equal opportunities and full participation in all sectors for greater dignity of life. Friendship is one of the way for inclusion and a breakthrough any kind of stigmatization. In this article I would like to focus on theory and multiple lairs of friendship among disabilities in West Bengal. Friendship can be termed as a development of inclusion into the mainstream. Recent narrative (mostly vernacular literatures and cinemas) suggests friendship between disabled and non disabled can be quite complex. The article may be juxtaposed between theory and field survey. The discussion is based on field survey (qualitative and quantitative methods), and we examine certain well known theoretical assumptions regarding friendship with disabilities. The paper emphasizes various kinds of barrier and the role to modify stereotypical attitudes towards disabilities by peer groups which will be help for better understanding of disabilities.

This essay is a much-revised version of my "Kantian Ethics and Claims of Detachment" (Baron, 1997). I am grateful to the editors at Penn State University Press for permitting me to use the material in that paper for this one. My essay addresses three criticisms of Kant's ethics, all involving the notion of detachment: that it requires us to be detached from other persons (at the very least, to hold them at arm's length); that it requires us to have a sort of detachment from our own projects; and that it requires detachment from feeling. I frame these worries in terms of a broader question of whether Kant's ethics is deeply or only very superficially at odds with feminism, doing so in light of claims by some feminists that it is indeed deeply at odds with it.

What can artists/creative practitioners contribute to interspecies relations informed by notions of care and repair? This article reports on the interconnections between wildlife wilding/rewilding and creative practice in Australia, wherein wildlife rehabilitation contributed to a methodology for the creation of interactive art sculptures. I propose that a creative practitioner's direct engagement in rewilding practices can lead to the design of human artistic expression that can be valuable to the lives and needs of other species. This research takes a mixed methods approach that involves both computational creative practice and enrichment design, where creative practice is diffracted through the lens of being a flying fox rehabilitator performing daily care duties in a care aviary/crèche. I include a discussion of flying fox-human relations in Queensland, Australia, a discussion of rewilding as it relates to flying fox rehabilitation organisations, and discuss the creation of a series of interactive artworks called the Quantum Enrichment Entanglers (2021-2022) that can be seen as the original non-traditional outcomes of this research.

A partir das contribuições, transformações e reverberações dos estudos de gênero e feministas na sociologia e na antropologia do trabalho, o programa da disciplina se organiza em torno de dois módulos que tratam das principais questões teóricas e metodológicas que marcam o campo, abarcando temas e categorias de análise como "cuidado", "subjetividades", "intimidade", "sexualidade", "marcadores sociais da diferença" e "desigualdades". Assim, a disciplina tem por objetivo apresentar as principais discussões conceituais e de investigação em que o "gênero", relacionado com as categorias e temas listados acima, se destaca como na construção de problemas de pesquisa e no desenvolvimento de análises socioantropológicas. O segundo módulo do programa focará no debate de projetos de pesquisa ou do desenvolvimento do campo das/os discentes.

The pursuit of knowledge and understanding has always been a fundamental aspect of human life. Seeking wisdom, learning about the world, and understanding one's purpose are essential for personal development and social harmony. A structured approach to acquiring knowledge, particularly one that encompasses moral values, history, and spirituality, plays a crucial role in shaping individuals and communities. Through this journey, people develop a deeper connection with their beliefs, refine their character, and learn how to navigate life with integrity and wisdom. The importance of gaining insight into ethical principles, human behavior, and historical events cannot be overstated. By exploring these areas, individuals can better understand their responsibilities toward themselves, their families, and society at large. This article explores the significance of this journey, its impact on personal and communal well-being, and its relevance in modern life.

Cet article développe la thèse selon laquelle l’oppression des femmes et celle des autres animaux sont profondément interconnectées. Selon les écoféministes antispécistes, plusieurs oppressions humaines sont liées à la domination considérée naturellement juste des humains sur les autres animaux. Cette thèse va plus loin que l’approche analogique qui repose sur l’affirmation selon laquelle le spécisme est analogue au racisme et au sexisme parce qu’il s’agit d’une discrimination injuste fondée sur des critères moralement arbitraires. Au-delà des rapports analogiques entre ces oppressions, il existe des liens matériels, culturels, sociologiques, historiques, psychologiques et idéologiques entre l’oppression des animaux et celle des êtres humains, notamment des femmes. Ces analyses des écoféministes antispécistes sont désormais appuyées par plusieurs études empiriques en psychologie morale et sociale. Des considérations sociologiques et historiques révèlent que la cause animale est largement un mouvement de femmes méprisé pour des raisons souvent sexistes et qu’il existe une division genrée de la violence et du care envers les animaux. Par conséquent, nous avons de bonnes raisons de penser que la libération des
femmes et celle des animaux sont reliées à plusieurs égards et qu’un mouvement écologiste prenant au sérieux les perspectives féministes devrait être plus sensible au sort des animaux – et inversement.

In response to the crisis of care created by the neoliberal capitalist era, many new concepts have emerged as part of the collective search for solutions to the care crisis, including care commons, caring cities and caring infrastructures. Care infrastructures as part of the urban social infrastructure are understood in this work as "everyday non-institutional care spaces" (Merkel, 2023). This study focuses on the infrastructures of care in contemporary Japanese cities. Based on six months of fieldwork in Japan in the spring of 2023, it explores the potential of the socioeconomic endeavors of mostly Japanese women in major Japanese cities as a care infrastructure to support the care needs of different social groups. The paper presents two cases as culturally specific examples of Japanese care infrastructure. It contributes to the literature by showing that care is intertwined with the economy as a new social business model in contemporary Japan, in a different way from the more volunteer-based care infrastructures in other countries.
