In this book, social psychologist Ronnie Janoff-Bulman provides a new framework for understanding why and how we disagree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShe asks readers to consider the possibility that, amid the current poisonous politics in the United States, the motives of both liberalism and conservatism are morally based and reflect genuine concern for the country. Moral psychology is an invaluable lens for understanding the roots of political differences. Janoff-Bulman presents a “Model of Moral Motives” that maps the most fundamental motivations recognised by psychology—approach and avoidance—onto these differences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConservatives' motive to protect the group and liberals' motive to provide for the group's well-being help us understand why different positions resonate on each side of the political spectrum. Why, for example, do conservatives oppose abortion and favour unfettered free markets, while liberals favour a woman’s right to choose and economic regulation? The two moralities ground these positions in naturally occurring psychological differences between liberals and conservatives and show why a well-balanced society, like a well-balanced individual, requires both sets of motives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47384059445484,"sku":"9780300244083","price":59.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/24438573482294.jpg?v=1773400564","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/the-two-moralities-by-ronnie-janoff-bulman-9780300244083","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
