(ETHICS OF JUSTICE/RIGHTS)
A. PRE-CONVENTIONAL LEVEL
STAGE 1: Deferring to authority
STAGE 2: Learning to satisfy one’s own needs.
B. CONVENTIONAL LEVEL
STAGE 3: Conforming to stereotypical roles.
STAGE 4: Sense that individual roles contribute to social order.
C. POST-CONVENTIONAL LEVEL
STAGE 5: Morality thought of in terms of rights and standards endorsed by society as a whole.
STAGE 6: Morality thought of as self-chosen, universal principles of justice.
On Kohlberg's model, moral development is the development of an autonomous self, capable of being motivated by abstract principles understood as a kind of "mathematical" solution to conflicts of interests.
GILLIGAN'S SIX STAGES OF MORAL DEVELOPMENT (ETHICS OF CARE)
GILLIGAN'S SIX STAGES OF MORAL DEVELOPMENT (ETHICS OF CARE)
A. PRE-CONVENTIONAL LEVEL
STAGE 1: Caring for the self.
STAGE 2: Stage 1 concern judged to be selfish.
B. CONVENTIONAL LEVEL
STAGE 3: Goodness is caring for others, frequently equated with self-sacrifice.
STAGE 4: Illogic of the inequality between self and others becomes evident. Search for equilibrium.
C. POST-CONVENTIONAL LEVEL
STAGE 5: Focus on the dynamics of relationships, to eliminate the tension between self and others.
STAGE 6: Care is extended beyond personal relationships to a general recognition of the interdependence of self and other, accompanied by a universal condemnation of exploitation and hurt.
On Gilligan's model, moral development is the development of a self-in-relation. Morality is understood in terms of the preservation of valuable human relations. Progress from stage to stage is motivated by increasing understanding of human relationships.
