Clearer Thinking with Spencer Greenberg

CHAPTER

The Moral Constructive Distinction

Research on the moral conventional distinction and other attempts to see how people from different cultures and sub-communities think about the distinction between moral and non-moral concerns often reveals that. People will attribute some of those traits to things you and I might consider to be conventions but not to what we would consider to be moral violations. In other words it looks like there's evidence to support this claim that the way that you draw the moral versus non-moral distinction isn't culturally universal. It could even go so far as to suggest that there may be cultures and societies that don't have a moral bucket like at all.
