Joining the Resistance

Carol Gilligan

4.9/5 (19885 ratings)

Description:In Joining the Resistance, Carol Gilligan reflects on the evolution of her thinking and shows how her key ideas were interwoven with her own life experiences. Her work began with the question of voice: who is speaking to whom, in what body, telling what stories about which relationships? By listening carefully, she heard a voice that had been held in silence, and in the process realized the extent to which we--both women and men--had been telling false stories about ourselves.In her subsequent work, Gilligan found that adolescent girls resisted pressures to disengage themselves from their honest voices, and by joining their resistance, she opened the way for the development of a more humane way of thinking about personal and political relationships. The central conviction of her work today--and the central thesis of this book--is that the requisites for love and the requisites for citizenship in a democratic society are one and the same. Both voice and the desire to live in relationships are inherent to our human nature, together with the capacity to resist false authority. Combining autobiographical reflection with an analysis of key questions about gender and human development, Joining the Resistance is a timely and highly readable book by one of America’s greatest contemporary thinkers.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
