The philosophical tradition has given rise to many competing moral
theories. Virtue ethics encourages the flourishing of the person,
theories of justice and rights tell us to act according to
principles, and consequentialist theories advise that we seek to
bring about good ends. These varied theories highlight the morally
relevant features of the problems that we encounter both in
everyday personal interactions and on a broader social scale. When
used together, they allow us to address moral conflicts by
balancing a plurality of reasons in order to reach nuanced ethical
decisions. In Ethical Reasoning: Theory and Application, Andrew
Kernohan guides the reader through the basics of these moral
theories, showing their strengths and weaknesses and emphasizing
the ways in which competing moral reasons can be collectively
employed to guide decision-making. Throughout, the focus is on
practical applications and on how each theory can play a role in
solving problems and addressing issues. Numerous questions and
exercises are provided to encourage active reflection and retention
of information.
