ABSTRACT
This cutting-edge handbook examines moral psychology and behavior, uncovering layers of human morality through a comprehensive overview of topics and approaches.
Featuring an array of expert international contributors, the book addresses five key themes: moral reasoning, moral judgments, moral emotions, moral behavior and moral self-views. Each section includes empirical chapters that address these themes at the intrapersonal, interpersonal, intragroup or intergroup level. Each section starts with a reflective chapter from a leading scholar in this field of study who shares their personal vision on key issues and future developments. Drawing on emerging research and featuring real-world examples, the book offers a deeper understanding of the social psychological factors that shape our moral behavior and how this plays out in our daily lives.
The Routledge International Handbook of the Psychology of Morality will be essential reading for academics and students in social psychology, the psychology of morality, business ethics and related areas. It will also be a compelling resource for legal and HR professionals, policy makers and anyone interested in understanding the complex and multi-faceted nature of human morality.
