This book brings together essays from leading scholars who, rather
than taking a strictly exegetical approach, attempt to show how
discussions in moral philosophy can benefit from Wittgenstein's
later philosophical work. The essays in this volume make the
argument that Wittgenstein's relevance for moral philosophy depends
not only on his views about ethics, but also on the methods he
introduces, on his views on the nature of philosophy and
philosophical problems, and on the insights into language developed
in his philosophy. They also focus on the 'Wittgensteinian
tradition' in moral philosophy and its relation to more mainstream
analytic moral philosophy, addressing how several prominent
philosophers use these ideas and methods in their work. Ethics in
the Wake of Wittgenstein seeks to answer the following question:
Can we apply Wittgenstein's ways of dealing with problems in logic,
philosophy of language, epistemology, philosophy of mind, and
philosophy of mathematics to moral philosophy as well? It will be
of interest to Wittgenstein scholars and those working on current
debates in moral philosophy, metaethics, and normative ethics.
