Description

Social Structure and Moral Development: Ethical Thought within Increasingly Complex Societies combines insights of developmental psychology and cultural anthropology to examine the development of moral thinking. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of small-scale communities of hunter-gatherers and farmers in Ethiopia and Papua New Guinea, C.R. Hallpike studies the means by which individual thinking interacts with complex social factors to produce moral ideas, and the effects of worldview on ethical systems. Recommended for scholars of psychology, anthropology, and philosophy.
