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



Apologies Gregory. I slipped a note about Vygotsky in the middle of my commentary on Cole, whereas in fact, Mike did not refer to Vygotsky in this chapter.
Culpa mia.

Ivo and Andy,
Also in the adolescence section of Mike's textbook is reference to William Damon. He has a wonderful 3-D graphic of the development of self-concept from infancy through adolescence.
His writings on moral development are quite good too. The major point that I always appreciate is that moral development should not be considered separately from development of self-concept (Andy, you might appreciate the way in which development of self-understanding and development of social understanding are caught up with each other - the development of an I that is We?).
Although I don't recall any explicit reference to Vygotsky, he draws on an Vygotsky's kin (according to some), the American pragmatists James Mark Baldwin and William James.
Damon and Hart 1992. Self-understanding and its role in social and moral development. In Lamb, M. and Bornstein, M. (Eds.) Developmental Psychology: An advanced textbook. pp. 421-464.

Graphic is on p. 433.
I'm happy to share a copy directly but prefer not to distribute widely.
