Arguing from an interpretive-pragmatic view, Brinkmann argues that psychology is fundamentally grounded in moral concern. ... Brinkmann makes a case for understanding morality as fundamentally embedded in social practices; a case in which figures such as Aristotle, Dewey, Heidegger, MacIntyre, and Charles Taylor loom large in the background.
