Flourishing: What does it mean for people to flourish?

Welcome!  I am a feminist moral philosopher and this is my blog.  Here I will be commenting on a range of topics including U.S. and UK politics, human rights, gender justice, conflict resolution, natality and flourishing. Every human being has a code of ethics, unacknowledged or not, which guide their actions towards themselves and others.  It doesn’t matter whether a person is religious or not.  Similarly everyone  has an idea of what it means for them to flourish, i.e. what gives their lives meaning and significance.

On these pages  I will explore different visions of flourishing as well as some of the hindrances to achieving them.  Additionally, this blog is a place to explore the ways in which to facilitate the flourishing of those who have been marginalized and/or oppressed with those of you out there who are interested in justice and human rights..

Come and join in with your thoughts and ideas.
