From the Guest Editors
Feminist scholars, attentive to the price people and groups pay when their bodies are seen as transgressing social norms, have analyzed the ways that people’s bodily differences mark them for oppression. Their investigations have alerted us to the fact that our bodies are both the subjects of ethical demands and the means by which these demands are articulated.

The essays in this Special Issue pursue the implications of situating bodies at the center of ethical theory. By dealing with such questions as: How does bodily vulnerability inform ethical demands? How does a focus on embodiment realign existing ethical theories and practices? How does an embodied ethics contribute to new ways of thinking about space, time, and intersubjectivity? How does an ethic of embodiment lead to a critique of the relationship between the normal, the norm, and the normative? they challenge prevailing ethical paradigms.
