Gilligan argued in her work that girls exhibit distinct patterns of moral development, based on relationships and on feelings of care and responsibility for others. Gilligan´s insights soon inspired a feminist-oriented movement in Philosophical Ethics known as the "Ethics of Care".

Emerging in the 1980s from Feminist Ethics when attention was drawn to Care as a structure within communities,
