Citations in the corpus

• Identity as a Source of Moral Motivation (2005, background): “This is evidenced by studies revealing the extensive spontaneous moral actions and unhesitating moral commitments of moral exemplars [Colby & Damon, 1992; Monroe, 2004].”
• Constructing Indignation: Anger Dynamics in Protest Movements (2014, unknown): “Scholars of movements have implicitly or explicitly begun to rely on a neoAristotelian view of morality as character training, which guides our actions intuitively, in contrast to a Kantian view of morality as a calculation of universally desirable choices (Monroe, 2004).”
