''The Origin and Development of the Moral Ideas'' is a book by the Finnish philosopher Edvard Westermarck, published between 1906 and 1908. One of his main works,〔Pojman 1999. p. 970.〕 it is a monumental study and a classic in its field, though now antiquated.〔Hintikka 2005. p. 303.〕 ==Summary==
Westermarck, in the preface to ''The Origin and Development of the Moral Ideas'', describes the background to his work. Having concluded that there is a close connection between moral opinions and religious beliefs, he decided to acquire first-hand knowledge of the folklore of a non-European people, and to that end spent four years in Morocco collecting anthropological data, familiarizing himself with the native way of thinking, and gaining an understanding of local customs. He was also indebted to British science and thought.〔Westermarck 1906. p. v.〕 In his introduction, Westermarck asks why different cultures have different moral views.〔Westermarck 1906. p. 1.〕 Throughout the book, he attacks the idea that moral principles express objective value.〔
