Parfit and the reasons for rule consequentialism
Salvat, Christophe
Parfit and the reasons for rule consequentialism - 2019.
16
This article examines the ambivalent relationships between Derek Parfit’s thought and utilitarianism. In On What Matters, Parfit rejects the idea of the incompatibility of moral philosophies, arguing that utilitarian, Kantian, and contractualist theories can be reformulated into one and the same “triple theory.” Is this convergence effective? What space do this Kantian inspiration and the use of T.M. Scanlon’s contractualism leave for utilitarianism?
