Understanding is often descibed as a kind of “seeing”, and that would make moral understanding a kidn of moral vision. Recently the idea of moral perception has been explored. I suggest that the identification of moral understanding with moral perception is promising, as it seems to give a good account of what is distinctively valuable about moral understanding. But in the end it faces a difficult dilemma. I draw some conclusions about what is distinctive about moral understanding and the role that moral vision might play.

道德理解是一种道德愿景吗？


理解常常被描述为一种“看到”，这将使道德理解成为一种道德愿景。最近，人们对道德感知的概念进行了探讨。我认为将道德理解与道德感知等同起来是有希望的，因为它似乎很好地说明了道德理解的独特价值。但最终却面临着艰难的困境。我对道德理解的独特之处以及道德愿景可能发挥的作用得出了一些结论。
