While searching for literature on "intuition", I came upon a book chapter that gives "the state of the art in moral psychology from a social-psychological perspective". This is the best summary I've seen of how morality actually works in human beings.
The authors gives out the chapter for free by email request, but to avoid that trivial inconvenience, I've put up a mirror of it.
ETA: Here's the citation for future reference: Haidt, J., & Kesebir, S. (2010). Morality. In S. Fiske, D. Gilbert, & G. Lindzey (Eds.) Handbook of Social Psychology, 5th Edition. Hobeken, NJ: Wiley. Pp. 797-832.
You're awesome.
I've previously been impressed by how social psychologists reason, especially about identity. Schemata theory is also a decent language for talking about cognitive algorithms from a less cognitive sciencey perspective. I look forward to reading this chapter. Thanks for mirroring, I wouldn't have bothered otherwise.
