Description
Summary:The first book-length account examining the major movement in twentieth century moral philosophy, virtue ethics, from a metaethical perspective. On Natural Normativity considers the philosophical framework underpinning the neo-Aristotelian revival of virtue ethics: natural normativity. The book situates natural normativity in relation to two central questions in metaethics. What is a moral judgment and wWhether one has reason to be moral? Explaining and defending natural normativity's distinctive answer to these foundational questions, the book then deals with several important objections to natural normativity that have emerged as the tradition has developed.
