    by Dan Egonsson ...

    Is it important to our quality of life that the preferences we satisfy are rational and well-informed?

  • Challenging Moral Particularism

    Edited by Matjaž Potrc, Vojko Strahovnik, Mark Lance ...
    Series series Routledge Studies in Ethics and Moral Theory
    Particularism is a justly popular ‘cutting-edge’ topic in contemporary ethics across the world. Many moral philosophers do not, in fact, support particularism (instead defending "generalist" theories that rest on particular abstract moral principles), but nearly all would take it to be a position that continues to offer serious lessons and challenges that cannot be safely ignored. Given the high ... Read more

  • A Reflexive Foundation for Human Science

    by Chris Mortimer ...

The reflexive reconstruction generates the concept of unitary mechanism, and through this the minimal and encompassing definitions of human being. And the reflexive reconstruction ... Read more

  • Ethics and Finitude

    Heideggerian Contributions to Moral Philosophy

    by Lawrence J. Hatab ...
    This book explores what anyone interested in ethics can draw from Heidegger's thinking. Heidegger argues for the radical finitude of being. But finitude is not only an ontological matter; it is also located in ethical life. Moral matters are responses to finite limit-conditions, and ethics itself is finite in its modes of disclosure, appropriation, and performance. With Heidegger's help, Lawrence ... Read more

  • The Epistemic Dimensions of Ignorance

    Edited by Rik Peels, Martijn Blaauw ...
    Ignorance is a neglected issue in philosophy. This is surprising for, contrary to what one might expect, it is not clear what ignorance is. Some philosophers say or assume that it is a lack of knowledge, whereas others claim or presuppose that it is an absence of true belief. What is one ignorant of when one is ignorant? What kinds of ignorance are there? This neglect is also remarkable because ... Read more

  • Art and Ethics in a Material World

    Kant’s Pragmatist Legacy

    by Jennifer McMahon ...
    Series series Routledge Studies in Ethics and Moral Theory
    In this book, McMahon argues that a reading of Kant’s body of work in the light of a pragmatist theory of meaning and language (which arguably is a Kantian legacy) leads one to put community reception ahead of individual reception in the order of aesthetic relations. A core premise of the book is that neo-pragmatism draws attention to an otherwise overlooked aspect of Kant’s "Critique of Aesthetic ... Read more
