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.
