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.
(一) 本书属于心理学的书,也被归于哲学类书。这种分类方式是很有意思。心理学的结论应该是事实判断。而正义不是事实判断,是道德判断。 本书的结论是骑象人之喻:是非之心来源于感情,而理性是为感情寻找理由。即人类在判断是非是,由感性给出结论,再由理性为什么是这个结...
评分读到这本书完全是巧合。那天闲来无事,于是去了Barnes & Noble。那几天刚读完围城,被故事中的失望与绝望弄的精神萎靡。于是很想找一本毫无感情纠葛的严肃读物。当时走到新书书架,一下子就被这本书的副标题吸引住了:Why good people are divided by politics and religio...
评分 评分 评分分析过程可参考但起了个高调后面草草了之。道德与否的评判标准的确时时出于非理性考量。
评分非常有意思。从进化的观点说明为什么人们更容易先有moral judgement,然后stategic reasoning。先入为主的moral judgement确实能够给决策树剪枝,把很多明显psychopath的选项先排除掉了;人们判断感情亲疏不是一个人为参照,而是以自己认为所属的群体为参照;conservative对liberal的设想与实际情况不多,但是liberal对conservative有不小的误解;现实让人心灰意冷,但是认清现实才有勇气。何况所有这些都有进化作祟,而且以group为单位的文化和基因进化的速度其实非常快,谁知道未来会怎么样呢。
评分先看John Jost的书评再看书,看的时候也时时怀疑自己不够客观, 感觉自己一直看到论证不太严谨的地方。作者和书评人都恰好在NYU,对两人的直观印象成为了阅读的背景。认真写完书评和笔记后再来重读一遍Jost的书评吧,也许可以再写一篇回应书评的评论。

评分总感觉像民科YY。。人的理性总是受第一反应影响,很难起到矫正作用。第一反应受进化影响,生成六个基本维度,右派和左派在这六个基本维度上有不同。进化分为个体选择和群体选择,宗教是群体选择的产物。
