Summary/Abstract: One of the problems of the modern world is the dynamization and atomization of society, a consequence of globalization and the COVID-19 pandemic era. This phenomenon is also evident in cities. The authors address these problems within the ethics of care framework. A concept derived from the psycho-philosophical reflection of feminism. From the perspective of care, they analyze those problems and challenges that theorists and practitioners of public policy-making are facing. Starting from thinking-centered assumptions, they point to a possible solution to prevent such problems – the concept of caring cities.
