Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -At stage 5, people begin to ask, “What makes for a good society?” They begin to think about society in a very theoretical way, stepping back from their own society and considering the rights and values that a society ought to uphold. They then evaluate existing societies in terms of these prior considerations.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stage 5: Social contract orientation Individual rights determine behaviour. The individual views laws and rules as flexible tools for improving human purposes. That is, given the right situation, there are exceptions to rules.

Detailed explanation-3: -The three levels of moral reasoning include preconventional, conventional, and postconventional. By using children’s responses to a series of moral dilemmas, Kohlberg established that the reasoning behind the decision was a greater indication of moral development than the actual answer.

Detailed explanation-4: -Stage V (Social contract and Individual rights)-In this stage, the individual or child understands that different people and communities may hold different views and laws. It implies the formulation of moral rules that bypass ethics.
