ABOUT BOOK

The collected texts – written primarily by scholars from Bulgaria, as well as from Poland – examine care as a key ethical, social, legal, and cultural category. Their point of departure is the context of contemporary crises: the war in Ukraine, migration, social inequality, and disputes over human rights. The authors explore the concept of care not only in legal and institutional terms but also through its representations in language, literature, and folklore – revealing the tensions and cultural imaginaries surrounding it.
