Disability and interdependence. A proposal based on the feminist ethics of care

The objective of this article is to show how the stigmas around disability, based on the premise that human beings are determined by their individual autonomy and independence, can be demystified by the ethics of care. In that sense, the thesis defended by authors such as Eva Kittay, Carol Gilligan, and Joan Tronto allows us to stand out that people are characterized, especially, for their interdependence, vulnerability, and need for care.
