Gilligan's Different Voice

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Gilligan's claim: beside the justice voice of rights and rules runs a care voice of relationship and responsibility — different, not lesser.

Show

Watch for

Gilligan later recast the care voice as human, not distinctively feminine; the classification is discussed, not settled.
