A decline in moral is among the impacts of technological development. For this reason, Thomas Lickona and Lawrence Kohlberg developed a concept of moral development, a concept which has also been discussed in the Holy Quran. Lickona stated that moral development stages are started with the ownership of moral knowledge (moral knowing) and move to moral feeling and moral action. Kohlberg stated that there are six stages in moral development. The stages are in three phases. First phase is called pre-conventional, which consists of stage 1 and stage 2. In this phase, people are more concerned about being right and wrong and getting reward or punishment. The next phase is called conventional phase, which consists of stage 3 and stage 4. In this level, people are more driven by internal motivation and how they are perceived by society. The final phase is post conventional phase, consisting of stage 5 and stage 6. In this level, people are able to independently interpret moral values and are driven by more universal values. The Quran divided the stages into some classes which are mentioned as ulul ilm (those of knowledge), ulin nuha (those of intelligence), ulil abshar (those of vision), ulil albab (those of understanding), ulil amri (those in authority), ulil aidi (those of strength) dan ulil azmi (those of determination).

Within the past few years psychology has become concerned with the issue of moral development. One theory that has received considerable attention is the cognitive-developmental approach of Lawrence Kohlberg. Unfortunately, Kohlberg does not deal convincingly with the mechanism of stage transition. A paradigm is suggested that explains the particularly crucial transition between conventional and post-conventional morality. Specific suggestions are generated from this values differentiation paradigm for Christian educators who are interested in facilitating moral development in their students.

<p>El presente artículo pretende realizar un acercamiento a los estudios sobre el razonamiento moral humano desarrollados por Lawrence Kohlberg<a href="file:///C:/Users/windows/Dropbox/Doctorat/Articles%20en%20revistes/Daimon%20n%C2%BA63/La%20%C3%A9tica%20del%20cuidado%20y%20Carol%20Gilligan%20-%20Daimon%2063.doc#_ftn1">[1]</a> así como a la crítica realizada por parte de Carol Gilligan a dicho trabajo. Abordaremos pues, la teoría del desarrollo moral de Kohlberg, adentrándonos en los niveles morales preconvencional, convencional y postconvencional, con el objetivo de discernir si esta explicación evolutiva de la moralidad humana adquiere un carácter universal, o si por el contrario, se refiere a las estructuras morales de un grupo humano concreto.

This paper seeks to explain the moral development of early childhood in the view of Lawrence Kohlberg. Research on Kohrlberg's development so far has been more targeted at the development of elementary age students to adults. This paper tries to analyze moral development at an early age, or age 4-6 years. Early Childhood according to Kohrlberg experienced a phase of moral development in the first stage (pre-conventional phase). In this period the child's moral development is influenced by the behavior of adults around the child (role model). The moral development of children does not occur suddenly but is attempted and intentional, in other words to achieve moral development in early childhood it is necessary to have moral education for early childhood. The interesting thing is that this moral development is always biased with a sense of injustice. Lawrence Kohlberg suggested that in conducting moral education should always be done with a sense of justice. Because justice is a major recognition of the same level and position, and become the most basic and general measuring tool. This discussion uses the method of library research. The results of this study indicate that educators (teachers) especially in early childhood in understanding the moral development of children, in addition to going through stages of moral development must also pay attention to justice in applying the stages of moral development.Keywords: Thought Lawrence Kohlberg, Early Childhood, Education Abstrak Tulisan ini berusaha menjelaskan tentang perkembangan moral anak usia dini dalam pandangan Lawrence Kohlberg.Penelitian tentang perkembangan Kohrlberg selama ini lebih banyak menyasar pada perkembangan peserta didik usia dasar sampai dewasa.Tulisan ini mencoba menganalisis perkembangan moral pada usia dini, atau usia 4-6 tahun. Anak Usia Dini menurut Kohrlberg mengalami fase perkembangan moral pada tahap yang pertama (fase pra konvensional). Pada masa ini perkembangan moral anak dipengaruhi oleh perilaku orang dewasa disekitar anak (suri tauladan). Perkembangan moral anak tidak terjadi dengan tiba-tiba tapi diusahakan dan disengaja, dengan kata lain untuk mencapai perkembangan moral anak usia dini maka perlu adanya pendidikan moral untuk anak usia dini. Hal yang menarik adalah bahwa perkembangan moral ini selalu biasdengan rasa ketidakadilan. Lawrence Kohlberg menyarankan dalam melakukan pendidikan moral hendaknya selalu dilakukan dengan rasa keadilan.Karena keadilan adalah suatu pengakuan utama terhadap tingkat dan kedudukan yang sama, dan menjadi alat ukur yang paling dasar dan umum.Pembahasan ini memakai metode penelitian kepustakaan. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pendidik (guru) terutama pada anak usia dini dalam   memahmi perkembangan moral anak, disamping melalui tahapan-tahapan perkembangan moral juga harus memperhatikan keadilan dalam menerapkan tahapan perkembangan moral.Kata kunci: Pemikiran Lawrence Kohlberg, Anak Usia Dini, Pendidikan
