Description
Reason and Ethics: A Challenge to Objective Value Joel Marks presents a provocative argument that all values are subjective, and in doing so, he questions the existence of objective morality. This thought-provoking work builds upon his previous research, exploring the implications of moral skepticism on our understanding of rationality. Marks' novel approach tackles the Companions in Guilt argument, suggesting that the denial of morality would not necessarily mean the loss of rationality. Instead, he proposes a pragmatic solution, offering a positive account of how life can be lived productively without relying on attributions of right and wrong, good and bad, or even truth and falsity. Accessible to scholars and intellectually curious readers alike, Reason and Ethics is an engaging exploration of metaethics that challenges our assumptions about the nature of values and morality.
