Ethische Wirklichkeit Objektivität und Vernünftigkeit der Ethik aus pragmatistischer Perspektive - Kiesselbach, Matthias (De Gruyter, 2012)
Literaturverz. S. [299] - 308
Doubts have long circulated regarding the intellectual honesty of everyday ethical discourse. Such doubts primarily relate to two of the fundamental assumptions underlying ethical discourse. First: Ethical judgments are truth-apt. Second: Ethical claimsare claims ofreason. The author offers a new line of defense for these assumptions. The principal reference points in his argument are the language philosophy approaches of Ludwig Wittgenstein and Robert Brandon. The thesis promoted by the book is that once we understand pragmaticfeatures oflanguage, several of the most troubling concerns in moral philosophyvanish on their own accord.
