Are there such things as moral truths? How do we know what we
should do? And does it matter? Constructivism states that moral
truths are neither invented nor discovered, but rather are
constructed by rational agents in order to solve practical
problems. While constructivism has become the focus of many
philosophical debates in normative ethics, meta-ethics and action
theory, its importance is still to be fully appreciated. These new
essays written by leading scholars define and assess this new
approach in ethics, addressing such questions as the nature of
constructivism, how constructivism improves our understanding of
moral obligations, how it accounts for the development of normative
practices, whether moral truths change over time, and many other
topics. The volume will be valuable for advanced students and
scholars of ethics and all who are interested in questions about
the foundation of morality.
