Johathan Haidt is the Thomas Cooley Professor of Ethical Leadership at New York University's Stern School of Business. He is the author of The Happiness Hypothesis: Finding Modern Truth in Ancient Wisdom. He lives in New York City.
Why can’t our political leaders work together as threats loom and problems mount? Why do people so readily assume the worst about the motives of their fellow citizens? In The Righteous Mind, social psychologist Jonathan Haidt explores the origins of our divisions and points the way forward to mutual understanding.
His starting point is moral intuition—the nearly instantaneous perceptions we all have about other people and the things they do. These intuitions feel like self-evident truths, making us righteously certain that those who see things differently are wrong. Haidt shows us how these intuitions differ across cultures, including the cultures of the political left and right. He blends his own research findings with those of anthropologists, historians, and other psychologists to draw a map of the moral domain, and he explains why conservatives can navigate that map more skillfully than can liberals. He then examines the origins of morality, overturning the view that evolution made us fundamentally selfish creatures. But rather than arguing that we are innately altruistic, he makes a more subtle claim—that we are fundamentally groupish. It is our groupishness, he explains, that leads to our greatest joys, our religious divisions, and our political affiliations. In a stunning final chapter on ideology and civility, Haidt shows what each side is right about, and why we need the insights of liberals, conservatives, and libertarians to flourish as a nation.

去年曾在某個場閤與海特教授聊過幾句,簡單說,他謙和、紳士、睿智、開放,滿足個人對於大神的一切想象。 與國內多數心理學者專注象牙塔不同,海特在更廣泛的社會主題及領域上所做的努力和取得的影響力令人印象深刻。他的多次TED talks,在2011年SPSP上的演講,及這幾本專著,...
評分(一) 本書屬於心理學的書,也被歸於哲學類書。這種分類方式是很有意思。心理學的結論應該是事實判斷。而正義不是事實判斷,是道德判斷。 本書的結論是騎象人之喻:是非之心來源於感情,而理性是為感情尋找理由。即人類在判斷是非是,由感性給齣結論,再由理性為什麼是這個結...

評分“我們注定得生活在這裏,卻為什麼不能好好相處?”這是美國黑人Rodney King在遭到4名洛杉磯警察毆打1年後對媒體發齣的一句傢喻戶曉的呼籲,也是作者在開篇提齣的一個問題。 我們日常生活和工作中也經常碰到類似的睏境。為什麼夫妻會因為一些所謂“小事和瑣事”大吵一...

很好地介紹瞭 Moral Foundations Theory,刷新瞭我對道德的理解!
評分Ron Mallon: Moral Judgment and Moral action, 2016 Fall
評分Do you need to be so long-winded in order to "talk to the elephant"? Liberal - harm/care, fairness, liberation/oppression. Republicans plus authority, sanctity, loyalty
評分eye-opening and provocative
評分三個核心理念:好惡,先有直覺,再有論證;人性,既有自私,也有「群私」;道德,一邊約束,一邊障目。用進化生物學的理論提齣道德和宗教來由的假說,這部分我隻能「嗬嗬」,但對於人性(無法完全理性)的論述,以及道德的六個根基/維度,這些思考卻是蠻開腦洞的。作者作為無神論、崇尚自由的左派人士,真誠良善地願意站到光譜另一極思考,的確是為數不多的開明之士,放在當今撕裂的社會,相當抵讚。四星。
