| Abstract: | In this article the authors attempt to understand ethical theory as not just set of well-developed philosophical perspectives but as a variety of moral capacities that human beings more or less grow into over the course of their lives. They explore the relation between formal ethical theories and stage developmental psychologies, explaining how individuals mature morally, in connection with their responsibilities, duties, ideals, values, goals and interests. The primary method of the authors in this study is to extract from the writings of Kohlberg and his students the cues that help to bring out a developmental picture of a wide range of ethical perspectives. |
