In Taking Morality Seriously: A Defense of Robust Realism David
Enoch develops, argues for, and defends a strongly realist and
objectivist view of ethics and normativity more broadly. This
view--according to which there are perfectly objective, universal,
moral and other normative truths that are not in any way reducible
to other, natural truths--is familiar, but this book is the first
in-detail development of the positive motivations for the view into
reasonably precise arguments. And when the book turns
defensive--defending Robust Realism against traditional
objections--it mobilizes the original positive arguments for the
view to help with fending off the objections.
The main underlying motivation for Robust Realism developed in the
book is that no other metaethical view can vindicate our taking
morality seriously. The positive arguments developed here--the
argument from the deliberative indispensability of normative
truths, and the argument from the moral implications of metaethical
objectivity (or its absence)--are thus arguments for Robust Realism
that are sensitive to the underlying, pre-theoretical motivations
for the view.
