Superspreading the word

open access: yesNoûs, Volume 58, Issue 4, Page 927-947, December 2024.
Abstract Quasi‐realists are expressivists who say much of what realists say. To avoid making their view indistinguishable from realism, however, they usually stop short of saying everything realists say. Many realists therefore think that something important is missing from quasi‐realism.

Metaethics as conceptual engineering

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, Volume 65, Issue 4, Page 514-536, December 2024.
Abstract On the traditional approach to metaethics, theories are expected to be faithful to ordinary normative discourse—or at worst (if we think the ordinary discourse is metaphysically unsound) to deviate from it as little as possible. This paper develops an alternative, “conceptual engineering” approach to metaethical enquiry, which is not in this ...

How to decide what to do: Why you're already a realist about value

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Philosophy, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 847-859, September 2024.
Abstract Metaethical realists and anti‐realists alike have typically assumed that deliberation about what to do is, at least sometimes, properly settled by the agent's evaluative attitudes—what she wants, likes, or values—rather than by any objective source of value out in the world.

Metaethical angst and the solace of sentimentalism

open access: yesThe Philosophical Forum, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 323-333, Fall 2024.
Abstract Perhaps, nothing matters. Life might be devoid of value and meaning. Such thoughts can prompt feelings of angst. What kind of philosophical view could provide us with comfort? Some moral realists think that moral realism can. Moral realism does not comfort me. I think the comfort it gives others is an illusion.
