This paper will discuss the significance that social justice, broadly construed, has within caring pedagogies. In turn, it will highlight the role that recognition, as understood by Charles Taylor, has in shaping a teacher’s caring pedagogical responses, and the dangers of, at best, ignoring aspects of social identities and, at worst, denying these exist in the first place.
