- Abstract
- Since Darwins theory of evolution, subsequent studies of the
theory, especially sociobiology, have had a deep and far-reaching
influence on other disciplines including moral philosophy and moral
psychology. For contemporary Darwinian theorists of human behavior,
one of the most significant issues under debate is a question about the
origin of human moral functioning. This study reviews current studies
in sociobiology and its related fields that deal with human morality. In
addition, based on an extensive literature review on the accumulated
research in sociobiology, this study attempts to demonstrate the
potential usefulness and applications of sociobiology in the field of
moral psychology and moral education.
