Moral Development and the Social Environment

The chapters in this volume are about moral dilemmas in two senses. First the authors focus on dilemmas both real and hypothetical which require moral judgements. The 'Heinz-Dilemma' part of Kohlberg's scoring systems is used as a point for level of moral development. There is also a Second sense as those who study moral reasoning being in a dilemma as they attempt to integrate information from the domains of philosophy and psychology.
