Challenging Moral Particularism, Vol. 12

Particularism is a justly popular 'cutting-edge' topic in contemporary ethics across the world. Many moral philosophers do not, in fact, support particularism (instead defending 'generalist' theories that rest on particular abstract moral principles), but nearly all would take it to be a position that continues to offer serious lessons and challenges, and that can not be safely ignored. This collection of new philosophy papers, written by well-known philosophers, will find a ready audience within the international academic philosophical community. Given the high standard of the contributions, and that this is a subject where lively debate continues to flourish, it is reasonable to expect that the book will become required reading for professionals and advanced students working in the area.Potrc, Matja is the author of 'Challenging Moral Particularism, Vol. 12', published 2007 under ISBN 9780415963770 and ISBN 041596377X.
