Home and identity: in memory of Iris Marion Young

Allison Weir

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article

Abstract

Drawing on Iris Marion Young's essay, ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢"šÂ¬Ã…"House and Home: Feminist Variations on a Theme," Weir argues for an alternative ideal of home that involves: (1) the risk of connection, and of sustaining relationship through conflict; (2) relational identities, constituted through both relations of power and relations of mutuality, love, and flourishing; (3) relational autonomy: freedom as the capacity to be in relationships one desires, and freedom as expansion of self in relationship; and (4) connection to past and future, through reinterpretive preservation and transformative identification.
