MORALITY IN A DIFFERENT VOICE: A STUDY OF FEMINIST ETHICS

This article provides a study of feminist ethics to clarify how morality is spoken differently than that of mainstream ethics. Our study aims to emphasize the specificity of feminist discourse on morality. To achieve this goal, we focus on key issues, including the feminist deconstruction of Western male-centered ethics, referred to as "androcentric ethics," reconstructing traditional ethics from a feminist perspective; and general remarks on the contributions and prospects of feminist ethics. The research methods used are comparative, analytical, synthetic, abstraction, and generalization based on essential literature related to the issues. From this research, we clarify the differences in feminist ethical discourse from the traditional male-centered one, as well as provide an approach to feminist ethics as a trend that is widely discussed not only in Western Europe and North America but also in non-Western regions (Asia, Africa, Latin America) from the late twentieth century to the present.
