(i) According to Simon Blackburn, someone who wants to avoid a 'realistic' account of our moral thought faces a choice.' The choice is between his non-reductionist 'projectivism' and reductionist 'subjectivism'. The former is the view that moral judgments express attitudes (approval, disapproval, liking or disliking, for example), which we 'project' or

Quasi-Realism and Inductive Scepticism in Hume’s Theory of Causation

Abstract Suppose that Simon Blackburn’s quasi-realist program has succeeded perfectly on its own terms-something I think not unlikely. Given the controversial nature of the program, this much endorsement from a philosopher and logician of Lewis’ stature is pleasant indeed.
