Description:
Presenting the view that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) could humanize capitalism by turning employers into care-givers, this text shows how the feminist theory of an ethic of care could be studied in the workplace.
Synopsis:
Bodies in Revolt argues that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) could humanize capitalism by turning employers into care-givers, creating an ethic of care in the workplace. Unlike other feminists, Ruth O'Brien bases her ethics not on benevolence, but rather on self-preservation. She relies on Deleuze's and Guttari's interpretation of Spinoza and Foucault's conception of corporeal resistance to show how a workplace ethic that is neither communitarian nor individualistic can be based upon the rallying cry "one for all and all for one."
