Morality pervades all aspects of society. However, morality is not only something that can be talked about, but such talk can have far-reaching, real-world consequences. Language is central to the ways in which morality is understood and practiced. There are gaps though in our understanding of how morality gets practically done in different discourse settings. The aim of this volume is to provide an introduction to research about morality in discourse, and the implications of this for advancing our understanding of morality across other disciplines.
