Description: The Moral Psychology of Internal Conflict by Ralph D. Ellis Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Beyond mere emotivism, a self-organizational enactivism grounded in an exploratory drive, or SEEKING system, suggests a truth-functional yet hermeneutical moral psychology. Publisher Description Pushing back against the potential trivialization of moral psychology that would reduce it to emotional preferences, this book takes an enactivist, self-organizational, and hermeneutic approach to internal conflict between a basic exploratory drive motivating the search for actual truth, and opposing incentives to confabulate in the interest of conformity, authoritarianism, and cognitive dissonance, which often can lead to harmful worldviews. The result is a new possibility that ethical beliefs can have truth value and are not merely a result of ephemeral altruistic or cooperative feelings. It will interest moral and political psychologists, philosophers, social scientists, and all who are concerned with inner emotional conflicts driving ethical thinking beyond mere emotivism, and toward moral realism, albeit a fallibilist one requiring continual rethinking and self-reflection. It combines basic emotion theories (such as Panksepp) with hermeneutic depth psychology. The result is a realist approach to moral thinking emphasizing coherence rather than foundationalist theory of knowledge. Author Biography Ralph D. Ellis received his Ph.D. from Duquesne University, Pennsylvania and a postdoctoral M.S. from Georgia State University.
