In this dissertation I will clarify the meanings of respect, care, and solidarity within an ecological feminist ethical framework in order to demonstrate how the increasingly prominent good food movement benefits from thoughtful engagement with critical ecological feminist perspectives. Using the work of philosopher Val Plumwood as my starting point, I will elaborate on respect, care, and solidarity as ecological feminist modes of moral response that is, as both moral attitudes and grounding concepts for situated ethical practices and behaviors. I argue that only by clarifying the meaning of these concepts can we appreciate the counterhegemonic possibilities of their application in particular ways and in particular contexts. My emphasis is on the idea that while these crucial modes of moral response are integrated meaning that they cannot be fully understood or employed without each other they are not interchangeable, contrary to the impression left by Plumwoods writing. The theoretical work of clarifying these concepts meanings is foundational for determining how they can be instructive in the context of food production and consumption. I argue that arguments for specific understandings of ethical food production and consumption will not be adequate unless they are sufficiently attentive to the intersections of gender, race, class, and species oppressions that ecological feminist frameworks highlight. I provide detailed ecological feminist critiques of two visions of good food: contemporary American agrarianism and the global food sovereignty movement. In these critiques I strive to purposefully locate the key modes of moral response: respect, care, and solidarity. Doing so indicates whether specific positions on ethical agriculture are indeed consistent with my preferred understanding of ecological feminist ethics, and helps to indicate areas for rhetorical or practical improvement.
