The provided passages do not directly state the practical implications of "Moral Consciousness and Communicative Action." However, they do indicate that the book sets out the implications of Habermas's theory of communicative action for moral theory [1].
The book aims to reconstruct a moral point of view for impartial judgment of normative claims through "discourse ethics" [1]. It develops a theory of justice that substitutes Kant's categorical imperative with a justification procedure based on reasoned agreement in practical discourse [1]. Additionally, Habermas connects communicative ethics to the theory of social action by examining social psychology research on moral and interpersonal development [1, 2]. He argues that fundamental moral intuitions stem from universal normative presuppositions of social interaction inherent in competent agents across societies [1].
