The Moral Judgment of the Child

""The Moral Judgment of the Child"" is a seminal work by renowned Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget, first published in 1932. In this book, Piaget presents his groundbreaking research on the development of moral reasoning in children. He argues that children's moral judgments are not simply a matter of learning rules and following authority, but rather reflect a complex process of cognitive development. Piaget's theory of moral development posits that children progress through several stages of moral reasoning, each characterized by a different level of understanding of moral concepts such as justice, fairness, and empathy. He also explores the role of social interaction and cultural context in shaping children's moral reasoning. This book has had a profound impact on the field of developmental psychology, and remains a classic in the study of moral development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
