Re: [xmca] Re: Vygotskian framework to moral development and crisis at age 17



We also did not write about the transition to adulthood at what used to be
called the beginning of adulthood, a frought notion indeed. There is not a
large literature on that topic which is only pre-figured in the first
edition of our textbook when we were allowed to include a life-span
treatment of development.
