The past two decades have witnessed a resurgence of interest inmetaethics, placing questions about the nature and status of ethical judgment atthe very center of contemporary moral philosophy. What are ethical judgmentsabout? And what is their relation to practice? How can ethical judgment aspireto objectivity and have an intrinsic relation to feelings or the will? MoralDiscourse and Practice collects important recent work on these core metaethicalissues. Reinvigorated naturalist moral realism and the various versions of moralrealism, as well as irrealist, expressivist and neo-Kantian constructivisttheories are all represented in this fine collection, testifying to the author'sattempt to objectively approach moral philosophy's fundamental debates.
