Moral Approbation is a philosophical work by John Dewey, one of the most influential American philosophers of the 20th century. In this book, Dewey explores the concept of moral approbation, which refers to the approval or disapproval of moral behavior. He argues that moral approbation is not simply a matter of personal opinion or cultural norms, but is rooted in objective ethical principles that can be discovered through reason and experience.Dewey begins by examining the nature of moral judgment, arguing that it is not simply a matter of subjective preference or intuition, but is a cognitive process that involves the application of ethical principles to specific situations. He then explores the role of moral education in developing the capacity for moral judgment, arguing that it is essential for individuals to develop a deep understanding of ethical principles in order to make informed moral decisions.Throughout the book, Dewey draws on a wide range of philosophical and psychological theories to support his arguments, including utilitarianism, pragmatism, and social psychology. He also offers practical advice for individuals and institutions seeking to promote ethical behavior, emphasizing the importance of cultivating a sense of responsibility and empathy for others.Overall, Moral Approbation is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the nature of moral judgment and the role of ethics in human behavior. It is essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy, ethics, or psychology.THIS 56 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Study of Ethics, A Syllabus, by John Dewey.
