提出‘农作’(husbandry)作为‘母职’的补充,构建一个男性照护原型,以唤醒男性对照护的责任,并应用于环境、照护工作和商业管理。

Abstract

While extremely important and revolutionary, much feminist work on the economics of care has risked reinforcing an association of care with <it>only</it> women and with <it>only</it> women’s traditional activities. This article revives the image of ‘husbandry’, understood as careful cultivation, tending and management, as a complement to the image of mothering. A rich masculine prototype of care may be helpful in re-awakening male responsibility for care, and revitalising the recognition of the necessity of concern and carefulness in all of economic life. The ‘good husbandman’, in stark contrast to ‘economic man’, lives a fuller life, acting responsively and responsibly. This article lays out the need for such a rich image; suggests applications to the environment, carework and business management; and addresses some possible drawbacks.
