"In Moral Education for Social Justice, the authors move students beyond the adoption of the values of the dominant culture (what the authors refer to as becoming "nice" people), toward a position of personal and societal moral critique. The authors argue that the development of social and moral cognition does not occur in isolation.

Throughout human life, there is a continuity of running behind different needs which may or may not be satisfied. At the same time, due to rapid and unexpected changes in the society and environment, human personality and the behavior are being affected. Living in a society, to lead a healthy and successful life, there is a need to compromise and build a harmonious relationship with the society and environment. And this compromise between the needs of the individual and the demands of the community in which one lives is termed as “Adjustment” by many psychologists. The concept of “Adjustment” was first given by Darwin, who used it as an adaptation to survive in the physical world. Adjustment is an essential factor in the life of human, which is a continuous process and ends with life.
