摘要

Curiosity seems, in principle, like a morally good motivation to travel—like a motivation conducive to good travel. However, being motivated by curiosity can cause or fail to prevent different forms of harm to local populations. Standard accounts of curiosity do not adequately address these risks. I look instead at the role of feminist curiosity, which is a reframed form of curiosity as a relational stance that resists instrumentalization, foregrounds context, and embraces flexibility and uncertainty. Feminist curiosity is then a good motivation to travel, but it is not sufficient for good travel, given that the requirements of feminist curiosity may interact with other morally relevant considerations.
