They share a common set of cultivated moral character traits and psychosocial skills, according to Marc Gopin. These traits include kindness, reasonableness, self-control, and a goal-oriented commitment to peace. They are united by a shared set of moral values and the emotional skills to put those values into practice, enabling them to excel in what Gopin calls Compassionate Reasoning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this book, Gopin draws upon the history of ethics and his own thirty-year career in peacebuilding to develop an understanding of this type of reasoning. He argues that the multiplicity of approaches to ethics invites us to seek higher principles and intuitions. By exploring the worlds of others, we clarify our own deepest moral principles and commitments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCompassionate Reasoning provides a way for individuals with divergent moral principles and intuitions to communicate and find common ground in ethical concerns. Gopin explores this approach as a means to build peace, particularly across political, racial, religious, and cultural divides.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough his work, Gopin demonstrates that people who work in the helping professions possess a unique set of skills and qualities that enable them to make a significant impact on the world. By cultivating moral character traits and psychosocial skills, they can build bridges between different communities and create a more peaceful and just society for all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780197537923\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marcand the James Laue Professor at the Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44100521296122,"sku":"9780197537923","price":31.05,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1655466329364_book.jpg?v=1655647580","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/compassionate-reasoning-changing-the-mind-to-change-the-world-9780197537923","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
