Abstract

This chapter draws on George Herbert Mead to set out a pragmatist relational account of moral agency. It specifies how moral agency is relationally constituted and enacted. While Mead's work is used as a basis, it is argued that Mead's account needs to be extended to include relations of power and also emotions for a full relational account of moral agency to be provided.
