The Politics of Community: A Feminist Critique of the Liberal-Communitarian Debate

by Elizabeth Frazer, Nicola Lacey

Two Oxford scholars explore the similarities between communitarian and feminist critiques of liberalism, and also identify the dangers to feminism inherent in communitarianism. They define communitarianism as the thesis that the community, rather than the individual, the state, the nation, or any other entity, should lie at the center of our value a concept around since Plato's time, but not codified in recent times into a distinct ideology.
