The decline in moral standard—which has long concerned social analysts—has at least captured the attention of average Americans. And Jean Bethke Elshtain, for one, is glad.
The fact that ordinary citizens are now starting to think seriously about the nation’s moral climate, says the ethics professor at the University of Chicago, is reasonable to hope that new ideas will come forward to improve it.
But the challenge is not to be underestimated. Materialism and individualism in American society are the bigger obstacles. "The thought that ’I’m in it for me’ has become embedded in the national consciousness," Ms. Elshtain says.
Some of this can be attributed to the disintegration of traditional communities, in which neighbors looked out for one another, she says. With today’s greater mobility and with so many couples working, these bonds have been weakened, replaced by a greater emphasis on self.
【F1】
In a 1996 poll of Americans, loss of morality topped the list of the biggest problems facing the U.S.
And Elshtain says the public is correct to sense that: Data shows that Americans are struggling with problems unheard of in the 1950s, such as classroom violence and a high rate of births to unmarried mothers.
The desire for a higher moral standard is not a lament for some nonexistent "golden age", Elshtain says, not is it a wishful longing for a time that denied opportunities to women and minorities. Most people, in fact, favor the lessening of bias.
【F2】
Moral erosion won’t be reversed until people find ways to counter the materialism in society
—and this can only occur with individual growth, she says. "Slowly, you recognize that the things that matter are those that can’t be bought." [br] 【F1】
