Death Of Character Moral Education In An Age Without Good Or Evil

Death Of Character Moral Education In An Age Without Good Or Evil by Hunter, James Davison. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780465047307.

The Death of Character is a broad historical, sociological, and cultural inquiry into the moral life and moral education of young Americans based upon a huge empirical study of the children themselves. The childrens thoughts and concerns-expressed here in their own words-shed a whole new light on what we can expect from moral education. Targeting new theories of education and the prominence of psychology over moral instruction, Hunter analyzes the making of a new cultural narcissism.
