From Ought to Is: A Neo-Marxist Perspective on the Use and Misuse of the Culture Construct.
Baumrind, Diana
Human Development, v41 n3 p145-165 May-Jun 1998
Presents a neo-Marxist perspective on morality, showing how it pertains to the use and misuse of the culture construct. Explains the standpoint concept, and identifies issues central to morality. Maintains that moral beliefs are grounded in cultural contexts, arguing that the dominant morality in a culture justifies ruling class interests, and that the standpoint represents interests of the oppressed.
