Abstract
In her recent "Etica e politica dell'ordinario" (2015), Sandra Laugier has developed an interesting reconceptualization of ethics as connected to the ordinary dimensions of our lives, understood mainly in terms of ordinary language. The paper aims at showing the richness of such a proposal, mostly in relation to the transformation it offers of the well known paradigm of care ethics. A few critical remarks are offered in the conclusion.
