Document Summary
Kohlberg has focused on moral development and has proposed a stage theory of moral thinking which goes well beyond piaget"s initial formulations. According to kohlberg, moral development is : not due to maturation: that is, the stage structures and sequences do not simply unfold according to a genetic blueprint. Not b/c over time that we become more moral: not the product of socialization: that is, socializing agents (e. g. , parents and teachers) do not directly teach new forms of thinking. Presented this moral dilemma to his participants: heinz steals the drug situation: In europe, a woman was near death from a special kind of cancer. There was one drug that the doctor"s thought might save her. It was a form of radium that a druggist in the same town had recently discovered. The drug was expensive to make, but the druggist was charging ten times what the drug cost him to make.
