The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Emperor Asoka's achievements reflected the ideals of Buddhism in the following ways.

As the third ruler of the Mauryan Empire, Ashoka the Great (304-232 BCE) ruled India under the principles of Buddhism with much success. In the beginning, he was a cruel ruler and his army killed many people. But after so much blood and a time of introspection, Ashoka changed and followed the principles taught by Buddha. History says that he wrote an edict in which he expressed his regret for what he had done in the past. So Ashoka made a reformation to instill peace in his reign and his officials carved rock with his edict for the people to contemplate it. He promoted freedom of religion and tolerance of different beliefs. He constructed hospitals and helped the poor. He ordered to plant fruit trees, and promote the respect for the elderly.

Answer:

B. Kohlberg's theory is a justice pennective while Gilligan's theory is a care perspect

Explanation:

Carol Gilligan assumes that the care perspective takes basic importance on attachment and compassion. Lawrence Kohlberg proposes that men more frequently attain, the upper levels of moral development than women.

Kohlberg formulated three levels of moral maturity. At the start up level, children basically take right and wrong in relation to the authority personalities th at define this situation or based on reward or punishment. The next level is observed in adolescents who relies on right and wrong on loyalties. The final level is attained when a person depends on universal and abstract ethical principles as in principles of justice or equality.

Gilligan's studies reveals that women are mostly concerned than men with keeping good relationships with family and friends, and reducing hurt to those that they values. Men do often consider moral issues from the perspective of impartial and impersonal principles.

Kohlberg's theory states that the justice perspective is supported by males. Gilligan's proposes the care perspective is majorly supported by females.

The care perspective employs a "morality of nonviolence" that "supports a general denial of exploitation and hurt." This two different perspective shed more light why men are ready to put their lives in line in battles for patriotic duty and while women are set to put their lives in line to nuture the lives of their children.
