Moralism
Moralism is any philosophy with the central focus of applying moral judgements. The term is commonly used as a pejorative to mean "being overly concerned with making moral judgments or being illiberal in the judgments one makes".Moralism has strongly affected North American and British culture, concerning private issues such as the family unit and sexuality, as well as issues that carry over into public life, such as the temperance movement.
