Assessing the potential contribution of feminist ethical theory to the evaluation of specific social policies, this book applies it to family policy, health care, immigration, and pornography. It also shows that feminist ethics criticizes the gender biases in traditional ethical theory, and develops concepts that are more gender-sensitive.
