Paradoxically, they are both. Pleasure-seeking can take place only within the context of what works within a defined community, and central to any community are the evolved codes and principles guiding appropriate behavior, or morality."

The individual is not taken as given, but situated within an interactive social context that enables her education and development."| show=}} |
