A Question of Adequate Aims.
Boyd, Dwight
Journal of Moral Education, v25 n1 p21-29 Mar 1996
Analyzes and critiques several theoretical assumptions concerning moral education. Maintains that current theoretical approaches contain such a broad variation that they lack practical application. The singular focus on individuals and their interactions presents another problem. Advocates reformulating theoretical concepts to address these concerns. (MJP)
