Bodies In Revolt Gender, Disability, And An Workplace Ethic Of Care

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."O'Brien, Ruth is the author of 'Bodies In Revolt Gender, Disability, And An Workplace Ethic Of Care', published 2005 under ISBN 9780415945349 and ISBN 0415945348.
