<p>El presente artículo pretende realizar un acercamiento a los estudios sobre el razonamiento moral humano desarrollados por Lawrence Kohlberg<a href="file:///C:/Users/windows/Dropbox/Doctorat/Articles%20en%20revistes/Daimon%20n%C2%BA63/La%20%C3%A9tica%20del%20cuidado%20y%20Carol%20Gilligan%20-%20Daimon%2063.doc#_ftn1">[1]</a> así como a la crítica realizada por parte de Carol Gilligan a dicho trabajo. Abordaremos pues, la teoría del desarrollo moral de Kohlberg, adentrándonos en los niveles morales preconvencional, convencional y postconvencional, con el objetivo de discernir si esta explicación evolutiva de la moralidad humana adquiere un carácter universal, o si por el contrario, se refiere a las estructuras morales de un grupo humano concreto. Más tarde, nos introduciremos en la crítica de Gilligan<a href="file:///C:/Users/windows/Dropbox/Doctorat/Articles%20en%20revistes/Daimon%20n%C2%BA63/La%20%C3%A9tica%20del%20cuidado%20y%20Carol%20Gilligan%20-%20Daimon%2063.doc#_ftn2">[2]</a> hacia dichos niveles morales, haciendo hincapié en la necesidad de incorporar las particularidades contextuales en la noción de razonamiento moral para definir un nivel postconvencional contextualista, que nos permita confrontar las nociones de ética de la justicia y ética del cuidado.</p><div><br /><hr size="1" /><div><p><a href="file:///C:/Users/windows/Dropbox/Doctorat/Articles%20en%20revistes/Daimon%20n%C2%BA63/La%20%C3%A9tica%20del%20cuidado%20y%20Carol%20Gilligan%20-%20Daimon%2063.doc#_ftnref1">[1]</a> Kohlberg, L., <em>The Philosophy of Moral Development</em>, San Francisco, Harper &amp; Row, 1981.</p></div><div><p><a href="file:///C:/Users/windows/Dropbox/Doctorat/Articles%20en%20revistes/Daimon%20n%C2%BA63/La%20%C3%A9tica%20del%20cuidado%20y%20Carol%20Gilligan%20-%20Daimon%2063.doc#_ftnref2">[2]</a> Gilligan, C., <em>In a Different Voice: Psychological Theory and Women’s Development</em>, Cambridge, Harvard University Press, 1982.</p></div></div>

The Impact

In 1982 Harvard University Press published Carol Gilligan’s landmark work, In a Different Voice, a book on psychological theory and women’s development, which sparked a heated discussion in the world of psychology. After listening to women speaking about themselves and about morality, Gilligan noticed that psychologists would study men and generalize to humans, and decided to explore the different voice she had heard. That became the basis of her book. In this interview she explains the origins of the book, how the book was received by the psychological community at the time, and why it had the impact that it did.
