On Sterba’s Argument from Rationality to Morality

The Journal of Ethics, 2014
James Sterba argues for morality as a principled compromise between self-regarding and other-regarding reasons (Morality as Compromise) and that either egoists or altruists, who always give overriding weight to self-regarding and other-reasons, respectively, can be shown to beg the question against morality.

Peacemaking Philosophy or Appeasement? Sterba’s Argument for Compromise

International Journal of Applied Philosophy, 2005
