This article discusses three different conceptions of ethics within contemporary feminist theory and how they depict the connection between ethics and politics. The first position, represented by Wendy Brown, mainly describes ethics as a sort of anti-political moralism and apolitical individualism, and hence as a turn away from politics. The second position, represented by Saba Mahmood, discusses ethics as a precondition for politics, while the third position, represented by Vikki Bell, depicts it as the 'external consciousness' of the political, and as destabilising political discourse by confronting it with singularity and 'radical' difference. Though they represent distinct positions, the article argues, all three suffer from a tendency to reify ethics by failing to give a contextualised account of it. The article then introduces the ethical perspective of Judith Butler, arguing that she – while offering both a transhistorical and a contextualised dimension – tends to psychologise and individualise ethics and politics. The last part of the article introduces Terry Eagleton and what, in a Marxist vein, could be called a 'materialist ethics' or an 'ethics of socialism', and argues that this way of framing the relationship between ethics and politics provides a solution to the trap of reification identified in the three described positions. This part also discusses how Eagleton's theory relates to – but also differs from – arguments made by Butler. One advantage of Eagleton's work, the article argues, is that it does not psychologise and individualise ethics and politics as Butler's work does.
I explore Baier, Held, Okin, Code, Noddings, and Eisler on trust and distrust. This reveals a need for reflection on the analysis, ethics, and dynamics of trust and distrust—especially the distinction between trusting and taking for granted, the feasibility of choosing greater trust, and the possibility of moving from situations of warranted distrust to trust. It is impossible to overcome the need for trust through surveillance, recourse to contracts, or legal institutions.

I begin with a series of "starting points" (rendered simplistically, without the nuance, supporting argumentation for, & qualifications of them that warrant elaboration). These offer a context for the next section: assessing the contributions & activism of feminist scholars. I then consider prevailing -- in contrast to feminist -- analyses of power & schematically detail the contributions of feminist theory/practice. this illuminates what I consider our most productive, politically consequential, & transformative insight: theorizing "feminization as denigration." A concluding section explores why feminists face so much resistance & what is at stake in persevering.
The Oxford Handbook of Feminist Theory provides a rich overview of the analytical frameworks and theoretical concepts that feminist theorists have developed to explicate the known world. Featuring leading feminist theorists from diverse regions of the globe, this collection delves into fifty subject areas, demonstrating the complexity of feminist challenges to established knowledge, while also engaging areas of contestation within feminist theory.
