IN A DIFFERENT VOICE

Abstract: Carol Gilligan is associate professor of education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Her 1982 book, In a Different Voice, presents a theory of moral development which claims that women tend to think and speak in a different way than men when they confront ethical dilemas. Gilligan contrasts a feminine ethic of care with a masculine ethic of justice.
