| Abstract: | This article is a critical discussion of two recent papers by Michael Hand on moral education. The first is his 'Towards a Theory of Moral Education', published in the Journal of Philosophy of Education in 2014 (Volume 48, Issue 4). The second is a chapter called 'Beyond Moral Education?' in an edited book of new perspectives on my own work in philosophy and history of education, published in the same year. His two papers are linked in that he applies the theory outlined in the former to a critique in the latter of my views on education in altruism in a 1990 publication. I introduce this article by outlining the tradition of recent philosophical thought about moral education, beginning with that of Richard Peters, in which Hand is working. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
