Bøker av Luis Antonio Vila-Henninger

How does culture affect action? This question has long been framed in terms of a means vs ends debate¿in other words, do cultural ends or cultural means play a primary causal role in human behavior? However, the role of socialization has been largely overlooked in this debate. In this book, Vila-Henninger develops a model of how culture affects action called ¿The Sociological Dual-Process Model of Outcomes¿ that incorporates socialization.This book contributes to the debate by first providing a critical overview of the literature that explains the limitations of the sociological dual-process model and subsequent scholarship¿and especially work in sociology on ¿schemas¿. It then develops a sociological dual-process model of moral judgment that formally explains Type I processes, Type II processes, and the interaction between Type I and Type II processes. The book also expands sociological dual-process models to include a temporal dimension¿the "Sociological Dual-Process Model of Outcomes". Finally, the book integrates a theory of socialization into the sociological dual-process model and creates empirical indicators that confirm Vila-Henninger¿s theorization and contribute to the literature on measures of dual-process models.
