Anti-Climacus

LINK: this certainly accords with my experience, but I think The Elder might be expanding the zone too much: he's meshing moral and political development (at least that's the assumption I make when he labels one view the 'liberal' one, though I could be wrong). Having been out of philosophy for so long, I'm not prepared to make any blanket assertions about how people develop their sense of morality, but on the political question, I believe that the story given applies only to political elites (we're all included in that category), and not at all to the other 50%-75% of the population (depending on which sets of numbers you find to be the relevant ones).
