Virginia Potter Held (born October 28, 1929) is a leading moral, social/political and feminist philosopher whose work on the
ethics of care
sparked significant research into the ethical dimensions of providing care for others and critiques of the
traditional roles of women in society
. Held defends care ethics as a distinct moral framework from
Kantian
,
utilitarian
and
virtue ethics
. Held's work on the morality of political violence viewed through the window of ethics of care has also been significantly influential.

City University of New York
– Graduate Center and
