Moral Panics According to Cohen‚ society is often subject to such instances and periods of moral panic; an occurrence which is characterised by ‘stylized and stereotypical’ representation by the mass media‚ and a tendency for those ‘in power’ (politicians‚ bishops‚ editors and so on) to man the ‘moral barricades’ and pronounce judgement.

    According to Aristotle‚ we get moral virtue as a result of habit and none of the moral virtues arise in us by nature‚ because nothing that exists by nature can form a habit contrary to its nature.
