Business Meta-Ethics: An Analysis of Two Theories
Business Ethics Quarterly, 1995Abstract:The main purpose of this paper is to defend traditional ethical theory (utilitarianism and deontology) for its application in business against a more recent model consisting of utility, rights, and justice. This is done in three parts: First, we provide a conceptual argument for the superiority of the traditional model; second, we demonstrate ...

Meta-ethics without normative ethics is empty. In the current climate this hardly needs emphasis: since 1960 or so philosophers in the English-speaking world have put away their earlier reluctance to think about substantive moral issues. For a while, in fact, it seemed that normative ethics would completely dominate the scene in the way metaethics once

Abstract Moore’s arguments begin a debate that revives sentimentalist and rationalist arguments. According to Moore, ‘good’ is indefinable, because there is no definition of it that mentions only ‘natural’ properties. Non-naturalist objectivists argue that we know about objective moral properties, but not in the way we know about other ...

The meta-ethical grounding of our moral beliefs: Evidence for meta-ethical pluralism
Philosophical Psychology, 2013Recent scholarship (Goodwin & Darley, 2008) on the meta-ethical debate between objectivism and relativism has found people to be mixed: they are objectivists about some issues, but relativists about others. The studies discussed here sought to explore this further.

Abstract There are four main traditions that inform our current consensus statements on medical ethics. These are the virtue ethics of ancient Greece, the Judaeo-Christian tradition, deontology and utilitarianism. Feminist writers see all four of these traditions as stemming from a specifically masculine conception of human identity. Feminist writers

Acta Analytica, 2008
The author takes up three metaphysical conceptions of morality — realism, projectivism, constructivism — and the account of justification or reason that makes these pictures possible. It is argued that the right meta-ethical conception should be the one that entails the most plausible conception of reason-giving, rather than by any other consideration.

According to Sidgwick, ethical judgments are, primarily, judgments about the right actions, or actions which ought to be done. Therefore, it is essential for students of ethics to understand the meanings of the terms ‘right’ and ‘ought’. At the same time, the notion of ‘good’ also plays an important role in ethics. Moral actions are often called ‘good’

A Meta-Ethics for Professional Morality
Ethics, 1978In the ordinary course of events, we expect to hear people give advice or voice positions on issues by virtue of their professional capacity. As philosophers, we expect this in the case of 'technical hypotheticals' ("In my professional capacity as an engineer, I advise that, if you want that bridge to stand up, you will need more struts.") Somewhat ...

Meta-Ethics and Meta-Aesthetics
2023Abstract Metaethics is a live and flourishing subdiscipline of ethics, and meta-aesthetics flourishes in aesthetics, but only infrequently under that title. Still, in the long history of aesthetics and the philosophy of art, a great many thinkers have delved into meta-aesthetic issues.
