INGRAM

A fter you have read Ian Stuart-Hamilton’s article, you will appreciate the central place of the ‘Heinz dilemma’ in Kohlberg’s assessment of moral development. Read the story of the dilemma again in Box 1 and discuss the following questions associated with it in class.

In Europe, a woman was near to death from a special kind of cancer. There was one drug that the doctors thought might save her. It was a form of radium that a druggist in the same town had recently discovered. The drug was expensive to make, but the druggist was charging ten times what the drug had cost him to make. He paid $400 for the radium and charged $4,000 for a small dose of the drug.
