Moral judgment and persistent disagreement
Jaffro, Laurent
Moral judgment and persistent disagreement - 2019.
29
The aim of this article is to clarify the conditions of real disagreement in the epistemology of moral judgments. It would seem that moral subjectivists can deal with disagreement more easily than realists. The former can refer disagreement to the diversity of individual or social preferences that evaluations express. The latter seem to struggle to account for it in contexts where the informational conditions of an evaluation are met. This paper defends a third approach, attentive to the epistemology of evaluation, which puts the emphasis on how moral value judgments are essentially dependent on reasons. In morality as in other areas, judging is, among other things, assuming responsibility for a verdict that may be justified.
