This title introduces and explores historical and contemporary
accounts of reasons in ethical action. When we say we act 'for a
reason', what do we mean? And what do reasons have to do with being
good or bad? Introducing readers to a foundational topic in ethics,
this book introduces and explores the answers that have been given
to some of these fundamental philosophical questions. Eric Wiland
here considers the ethical reasoning that lies behind our actions.
The book lays out and critically reviews some of the most popular
answers given in the history of philosophy, from perspectives
ranging from psychologism through value theory to primitivism. From
here, Wiland goes on to consider contemporary constitutivist
theories of reasons and explores how this approach can shed new
light on the nature of irrational action and vice. Reasons also
includes chapter summaries and guides to further reading to help
readers mastery this important question in contemporary writing in
ethics and the philosophy of action. "Continuum Ethics" is a series
of books written to help students explore, engage with and master
key topics in contemporary ethics and moral philosophy.
