The purpose of this paper is not to provide an overall picture of care ethics, but, rather, to reflect upon the concept of care, which has gained significance in particular scientific contexts. Undoubtedly, the importance of the subject of care represents a challenge on the level of fundamental philosophical positions and a diversified look into the occurring forms of the psychological and social suffering, dependency, and vulnerability. I will shed light on tenets that are considered central to the care ethics and that have led to the setting up of the relationship between care and democracy. By introducing the basic aspects of Carol Gilligan’s and Joan Tronto’s theories, I will emphasize their vocation to be politically relevant. A discussion on the relationship between care and justice on the one hand, and needs and rights on the other, will follow. Can hearing voices of care make democracy more just? How can care ethics provide a concrete support for democracy? On the political level, care ethics builds on the assumptions of the necessary relatedness and equality between individuals who are decisive in the light of the welfare state perspective. Upon closer examination, one may see that the setting up of these relationships is not new to the liberal perspective. Liberalism is historically rooted in the fundamental interconnection between freedom and equality. Virtues such as care and meekness can be formulated in the language of politics, but they still remain unpolitical. On the one hand, engaging in a critical reflection upon such virtues might be an indispensable measuring instrument for distinguishing a good democracy from a bad one. On the other hand, care ethics does not prove to be a real alternative to the ethics of justice. In this regard, care ethics seems to show its feet of clay.

L’autore dell’articolo prende di mira i frutti dello Spirito analizzandole come virtù presentate da Paolo nella lettera ai Galati. Dopo le analisi iniziali, riguardanti la terminologia, contesto e il numero delle virtù, si nota la presenza di una antitesi tra il corpo (sarks) e lo Spirito (pneuma), però percepita in modo semitico. Nel punto centrale vengono sviluppati ed approfonditi i singoli frutti dello Spirito. Si tratta delle singoli analisi – piuttosto esegetici – di seguenti termini: amore, gioia, pace, longanimità, bontà, benevolenza, fiducia, mitezza, padronanza di sé. La conclusione è l’unica, cioè le virtù costituenti il catalogo apparso in Ga 5,22-23 compongono un solo frutto dello Spirito che si riferisce immediatamente allo Spirito Santo.
