چکیده
|
Jonathan dancy advocates a radical particularist theory of ethics. arguing against a variety of generalist doctrines, he maintains that there are no moral principles and that our ethical decisions are highly context-dependent: they are made case by case, without the support of such principles. in this paper, drawing on a number of theoretical concepts used in science as well as the philosophy of science i shall try to develop a moderate generalist-pluralist model. this model, i shall argue, is less vulnerable to dancy's criticisms and better equipped, in comparison to dancy's own model, to deal with moral cases.
