44What Feminism Can Do for BioethicsHealth Care Analysis 9 (2): 117-132. 2001.Feminist criticism of health care and ofbioethics has become increasingly rich andsophisticated in the last years of thetwentieth century. Nonetheless, this body ofwork remains quite marginalized. I believe thatthere are (at least) two reasons for this.First, many people are still confused aboutfeminism. Second, many people are unconvincedthat significant sexism still exists and aretherefore unreceptive to arguments that itshould be remedied if there is no largerbenefit. In this essay I argue fo…Read more

13Embodying Bioethics: Recent Feminist Advances (edited book)Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. 1999.Medical issues affecting health care have become everyday media events.

In this important book, a distinguished group of feminist scholars and activists discuss crucial bioethics topics in a feminist light. Among the subjects explored are the care/justice debates, tr…Read more

94In Their Best Interest?: The Case Against Equal Rights for ChildrenCornell University Press. 1992.Proponents of children's liberation (CL) argue that there are no morally relevant differences between children and adults. Consequently, special protective laws that limit children's freedom are unjustified, and should be abolished. Protectionists reject the premise of this argument, and hence also the conclusion. Proponents of CL mostly fix upon the capacity for instrumental reasoning as the criterion that should separate autonomous from non-autonomous individuals. I argue that most childr…Read more
