The Ethics of Need: Agency, Dignity, and Obligation explores the philosophical significance of human vulnerability and interdependence for moral responsibility. Drawing on Kantian and feminist ethics, the book advances a normative analysis of the concept of need that reveals an obligation to meet others' needs in a manner that promotes their agency and dignity.
