Description

"The Contradictions of Modern Moral Philosophy" is a highly original and radical critique of contemporary moral theory. Johnston skillfully demonstrates how much of recent moral philosophy runs aground on the issue of whether we can make correct moral judgements. His analysis begins with an insightful discussion of the divisions within moral philosophy. On one hand many philosophers deny that it is possible to make correct judgements on other peoples actions; on the other, they remain preoccupied with distinguishing between what is "right" and "wrong." Paul Johnston shows how much recent moral philosophy consists of unsuccessful attempts to eliminate this contradiction.
