"In a Different Voice and After" with Carol Gilligan
From: Prairie Public
Series: Why? Philosophical Discussions About Everyday Life
Length: 52:57
Do men think differently than women? Is moral reasoning inherently male? Is psychology biased against relationships and the women who value them? Thirty years ago, Carol Gilligan asked these questions and shook the foundations of philosophy, psychology, and feminism. This month on WHY?, we revisit Gilligan’s classic study In A Different Voice and ask whether her answers still hold true.
