Discussion
The ethics of virtue and care depends on the values of justice, that explains an admirable behavious towards the character and expresses excellent inner state. Justice is more based upon moral values of right and wrong which are developed in a societal space ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"cv6nhcrk","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(R.

Moral Judgment Across Cultures
Cognitive abilities differ from culture to culture which makes it more complex to understand certain characteristics. The cognitive epistemology of East Asian culture represents holistic approaches where the use little formal logic based on dialectical reasoning. In contrast, Western moral judgement is based on analytic processes representing a different epistemology. They pay more attention to the objects and the rules attached with it ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"QhKl5OhD","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(R. E.

E. Nisbett, Peng, Choi, & Norenzayan, 2001). The cultural epistimologies are stongly influenced by gender theories making different pathways which are referred as gendered epistemologies and expressed as “women’s ways of knowing” ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"ViGe1P9U","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Belenky, Clinchy, Goldberger, & Tarule, 1986)","plainCitation":"(Belenky, Clinchy, Goldberger, & Tarule, 1986)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":35,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/DqTTedP9/items/J79YIT55"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/DqTTedP9/items/J79YIT55"],"itemData":{"id":35,"type":"book","title":"Women's ways of knowing: The development of self, voice, and mind","publisher":"Basic books New York","volume":"15","author":[{"family":"Belenky","given":"Mary Field"},{"family":"Clinchy","given":"Blythe M."},{"family":"Goldberger","given":"Nancy Rule"},{"family":"Tarule","given":"Jill Mattuck"}],"issued":{"date-parts":[["1986"]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (Belenky, Clinchy, Goldberger, & Tarule, 1986). The gender moral values tends to explain the different approaches taken by women regards to morality and justice.
Conclusion
The ethics of justice, virtue and care are derived from institutional background of people living in different cultures. The deffenders of every culture approach the values according to their much needed correction or complements of moral thinking. However, it mostly expresses the foundation of their characteristics which they have developed through time.
