This article introduces the concept of “domestic humanitarianism” as a critical lens to identify the cultural logics and moral economy that inform the production, narrative and reception of Stephanie Land’s memoir, Maid, and “Three Miles”, an episode of This American Life.

Such compassionate responses, I argue, potentially distract our attention from the slower, collective work of economic redistribution necessary for seeding economic justice and sustainable living conditions.
