Stories Lived and Stories Told
The ongoing debate about how to describe and explain late adolescent moral development is highlighted most clearly in the contrast between the work of Kohlberg and Perry. This paper addresses this debate by comparing the narrative structure of Kohlberg’s and Perry’s respective theoretical accounts with the narrative structure of personal accounts 2 late adolescents gave when asked to describe their own moral development. Perry’s account more clos…

The Narrative Approach to Moral Development
The narrative approach to the study of moral development is based on central theoretical assumptions about self that are described in this article. Careful attention to narrative yields an approach in which language plays a much larger role in structuring moral life, generating moral experience, and shaping a far more social kind of self than assumed by the cognitive-developmental approach. The narrative approach entails a move away from a paradi…
Fighting like a girl fighting like a guy
In this chapter we explore the phenomenon of "girls fighting like guys" by listening to adolescent girls' justification for physical fighting with other girls. We argue that physical girlfighting is a particular kind of gendered performance--a performance of identity that expresses, at least in part, an answer to the question, "Who am I?"--that both perpetuates and challenges the usual notions of masculinity and femininity and the differential po…
Domination, Subordination and the Dialogical Self
In this paper I present an approach to understanding the dialogical self that considers the role that social, cultural and institutional dynamics of domination and subordination, and structures of power of privilege, play in the development of identity. To accomplish this I expand Penuel and Wertsch's (1995) 'mediated action' approach to identity development to include a dialogical process of what Mikhail Bakhtin (1981) calls 'ideological becomin…

Autobiography, Mediated Action, and the Development of Moral Identity
This paper explores a sociocultural approach to the development of moral identity, by considering the recently published autobiography of Ingo Hasselbach. Hasselbach, the founder (in 1991) of the National Alternative neo-Nazi party in East Germany, writes about his childhood and youth, how and why he embraced the neo-Nazi perspective, and how and why he ultimately repudiated the movement that he had helped to create. The analysis of Hasselbach’s …

Interpretive Psychology
This essay provide an overview of the “interpretive” or “hermeneutic” approach to psychological research. It draws primarily on the work of Wilhelm Dilthey (1833–1911), a philosopher and literary historian who is generally recognized as the “father” of the modern hermeneutic enterprise in the social and human sciences. Dilthey argued that the human world was sufficiently different from the natural world that special methods were required for its …

Unser Ziel ist es, in diesem Aufsatz eine interpretative Methode zu beschreiben, die wir als Anleitung zur Auswertung (zum Lesen) von Interviewerzählungen über moralische Konflikte und Entscheidungen entwikkelt haben. Von zentraler Bedeutung für dieses Vorhaben ist, daß wir es für möglich halten, daß einerseits unterschiedliche Perspektiven im Hinblick auf moralische Probleme eingenommen werden können und daß andererseits zwischen diesen ein Konf…
Narrative, authorship, and the development of moral authority
When an individual “authors” a moral story in the context of a dialogic relationship with another, she claims authority and responsibility for her moral thoughts, feelings, and actions
Hermeneutics and moral development
Stories Told and Lessons Learned
The telling of stories in moral education has a long and universal tradition. In the study of moral development, however, the uses and power of narrative in both forming and conveying a moral sense have been largely ignored. Children's storytelling, they believe, creates authorship when the audience is responsive and the story told represents real experience. By presenting thoughtful and challenging evidence for the role of storytelling, these au…
