Moral perception and global visions.
Because moral perception plays an essential role in guiding morally responsible behaviour, agents have a responsibility to develop their capacities in this area. There are several strategies agents can (and should) pursue in order to improve their skills at moral perception. I appeal to insights derived from the work of feminist epistomologists [sic] and philosophers of science to argue that feminist approaches to multiculturalism are particularly valuable tools for improving moral perception.
