      abstract = {In The Ethics of Care , Fiona Robinson demonstrates how  the responsibilities of sustaining life are central to the  struggle for basic human security. She takes a unique  approach, using a feminist lens to challenge gender biases  in rights-based, individualist approaches. Robinson's  thorough and impassioned consideration of care in both  ethical and practical terms provides a starting point for  understanding and addressing the material, emotional and  psychological conditions that create insecurity for people.  The Ethics of Care examines "care ethics" and "security" at  the theoretical level and explores the practical  implications of care relations for security in a variety of  contexts: women's labor in the global economy, humanitarian  intervention and peace building, healthcare, and childcare.  Theoretically-innovative and policy-relevant, this critical  analysis demonstrates the need to understand the obstacles  and inequalities that obstruct the equitable and adequate  delivery of care around the world.},
