Riassunto

The psychological study of moral development has expanded greatly, both in terms of the diversity of theoretical perspectives that are represented in the field, as well as in the range of topics that have been studied.

This Handbook of Moral Development represents the diversity and multidisciplinary influences on current theorizing about the psychological study of moral development and the range and broad scope of topics being considered by scholars in the field.

The book is divided into six parts:

• structuralism and moral development stages
• social domain theory and social justice
• conscience and internalization
• social interactional, sociocultural and comparative approaches
• empathy, emotions and aggression
• moral education, character development and community service.

This Handbook will be of interest to scholars, policy makers, educators, and professionals who work with children.

Recensione:

'The chapters are clear, focused, and well written and provide a wealth of information on cutting edge research and theoretical perspectives. ... Killen and Smetana's Handbook of Moral Development allows readers to come along for the ride as outstanding thinkers in the field share their efforts to 'figure out' the dynamic and expanding field of moral development.'  - Association for Moral Education

'...this new 'Handbook' provides a bridge over the cognitive/affective divide that has limited progress in our understanding of how to foster moral development.' - PsycCRITIQUES
