Interdependence through time: relationships in post-Keynesian thought and the care literature

Abstract: Does Hyman Minsky's 'general interdependence through time' have anything to do with Carol Gilligan's 'narrative of relationships that extends over time'? Both post-Keynesian theory and the feminist 'care literature' embrace calendar time and fundamental uncertainty. Both investigate the properties of networks of wittingly-formed forward commitments between actors. If some prominent writers in the care literature are right, these networks merit their own social-ontological status, because they are reducible neither to individual behaviour nor structure.
