Self-Constructions
In Anita M. Superson & Sharon L. Crasnow, Out from the Shadows: Analytical Feminist Contributions to Traditional Philosophy. New York, US: Oxford University Press. pp. 451-492 (2012)
Abstract
Social relations are the core of a human self. Affiliations shape our social world, and ultimately alliances are the large players on the stage of human history. In the process of forging social links, human beings are sometimes lucky enough to enjoy the exercise of genuine existential freedom. These axioms are at the heart of the feminist account of self and social identity presented in this essay.Author's Profile
