Moral sensitivity affects whether and how we see others, note moral
concerns, respond with delicacy, and navigate complex social
interactions. Scholars from a variety of fields explore the concept
of moral sensitivity and how it develops, beginning with a natural
moral capacity for sensitivity towards others that is shaped in a
variety of ways through relationships, forms of teaching, and
social institutions. Each of these influences alters the capacity
as well as one's responses in complex ways. The concept of moral
sensitivity deepens as progressive chapters demonstrate its
increasing complexity through development within individuals, over
time, as they mature, and as their relationships and social
contexts expand. The chapters integrate research from philosophy,
psychology, neuroscience, literature, education, and media and
technology studies, with key chapters by Darcia Narvaez, Nancy E.
Snow, Michael S. Pritchard, and Stephen J. Thoma and a Foreword by
Owen Flanagan. It is the only comprehensive presentation of
interdisciplinary work on moral sensitivity that integrates a
theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical analysis. This highly
interdisciplinary approach provides a new way of thinking about the
relationship of individuals to society and moral sensitivity as a
social phenomenon, extending current research in ethics, moral
psychology, and psychology toward situated, embodied, and
contextual analyses.
