AbstractMany philosophers think that internalism supports a non-cognitivist account of normative judgments, according to which these judgments do not count as genuine beliefs, but rather as non-cognitive states of some kind. Such non-cognitivist accounts of normative judgments naturally accompany an expressivist account of the meaning of normative ...

Ethical Theory and Moral Practice, 2014
Over the years, we have witnessed the rise of a metaethical cottage industry devoted to claiming that expressivist analyses cannot capture some allegedly important feature of moral language. In this paper, I show how Simon Blackburn's pragmatist method enables him to respond decisively to many of these objections.

Expressivism faces four distinct problems when evaluative sentences are embedded in unassertive contexts like: (1) If lying is wrong, getting someone to lie is wrong, (2) Lying is wrong, so (3) Getting someone to lie is wrong. The initial problem is to show that expressivism is compatible with (1)-(3) being valid. The basic problem is for expressivists

AbstractWhile the meta‐ethical error theory has been of philosophical interest for some time now, only recently a debate has emerged about the question what is to be done if the error theory turns out to be true. This paper argues for a novel answer to this question, namely revolutionary expressivism: if the error theory is true, we should become ...

Is it still possible today to talk about God as a person? And if so, what does it mean? Christian Polke shows that a theological answer to these questions must address the contexts of these ways of talking. This will make it understandable that human beings as creatures who express themselves in symbols develop their religious understanding of the ...

AbstractThis chapter examines the expressive/projective strategy, which covers a family of views with interrelated common themes. The two most highly developed themes, norm expressivism (defended by Allan Gibbard) and projectivism (defended by Simon Blackburn), are considered.

There is a broad consensus among commentators, both sympathetic and hostile, that the fundamental idea of the Remarks on Frazer is that magic and religion are essentially expressive activities. Illustrative of this is, first, a passage from theDanger of Words, where M. O’C.

The Possibility of Expressivism
1999We have hitherto seen that the purpose of the Remarks on Frazer has been said to lie in the production of an expressivist account of religion; one, that is, which claims that the point of magical and religious rituals is to express deep human emotions and attitudes about life and the world.
