Abstract: The COVID-19 crisis was a sign of the growing awareness of the value of care jobs. We have witnessed the economic and social importance of "caring" and the vulnerability of our societies. Given their strong relational aspect, these jobs are at the heart of issues that command to maintain or consolidate social interrelationships. Our reflection focuses on the importance of cultivating an ethic of care (Gilligan, 1982), combined with Cova's proposal to consider an economy of linkage. The economy is not limited to the exchange of goods or services (Commons, 1959; Perroux 1963), but rather concerns relations between individuals; relations must have primacy over goods. Let's hope that this economy of relations or of care imposes itself and is not excluded to benefit the ambition of remaining within a digital economy that is largely "imposed" during containment.

Keywords: Ethics of caring; economy of link; containment; social link and digital economy; Éthique de la sollicitude; économie du lien; confinement; lien social et économie numérique. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
