Lecture 04:

Moral Psychology

Structure of this course

Course Structure

 

Part 1: psychological underpinnings of ethical abilities

Part 2: political consequences

Part 3: implications for ethics

Next issue (Part II of lecture course)!

Do cultural differences in moral psychology explain political conflict on climate change?

Plan:

Work through Feinberg & Willer, 2013 ‘The Moral Roots of Environmental Attitudes’

What are their background assumptions, and what is the evidence for them?
What is their theoretical framework?

Can I have a preview?

1. ‘Moral convictions and the emotions they evoke shape political attitudes’

3. ‘liberals and conservatives possess different moral profiles’

Numbering is deliberate --- skipping #2 in the preview
There is cultural variation in the bounds of ethics between socially liberal and sociall conservative people.

4. ‘liberals express greater levels of environmental concern than do conservatives in part because liberals are more likely to view environmental issues in moral terms.’

5. ‘exposing conservatives to proenvironmental appeals based on moral concerns that uniquely resonate with them will lead them to view the environment in moral terms and be more supportive of proenvironmental efforts.’
