The Psychology Behind Morality

The Psychology Behind Morality —  This hour-long interview serves as a good intro or overview on the current research and social science views on moral norms and moral reasoning.  The guest, Jonathan Haidt, is the author of the bestselling book, The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion (Vintage, 2013).  His own self-described “conservative-hating, religion-hating, secular liberal instincts” have been challenged by his own studies.
