SUMMARY:Caring Democracy: Current Topics in the Political Theory of Care
UID:20260625T124917Z-iCalPlugin-Grails@philevents-web-bd7db559-gt5qm
TZID:Europe/Prague
LOCATION:Jilská 1\, Prague\, Czech Republic\, 11000
DESCRIPTION:<p>The aim of the conference is to elaborate on Tronto&rsquo\;s invitation to rethink the very substance of democracy from the care perspective. The participants will enjoy the opportunity to discuss a variety of questions opened up by Tronto&rsquo\;s application of care theory to democratic theory. These include (not exclusively):</p>\n<ul>\n<li>To what extent does liberty\, equality and justice depend upon caring?&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>How does the distribution of care affect the distribution of social and political power?</li>\n<li>How do gender norms\, neoliberal rationality and marketization distort the realities of care and veil the real costs of democracy?</li>\n<li>How does the marketization of care relate to the idea of &lsquo\;personal responsibility&rsquo\; and what are its threats?</li>\n<li>Are the contemporary democracies caring enough? And how could they become more caring?</li>\n<li>How to reopen the closed\, game-like political systems to the genuine concerns of citizens?</li>\n<li>How can we conceptualize\, from the care perspective\, contemporary voters&rsquo\; loss of trust in the political system and their increasing absence from politics? And how to remedy this political malaise?&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>What happens when &lsquo\;the demos&rsquo\; does not care about care\, i.e. if an actual democratic process does not produce the conclusions that are essential to the realization of democracy&rsquo\;s defining values?</li>\n</ul>
