Wilfrid Sellars's ethical theory was rich and deeply innovative. On
Sellars's view, moral judgments express a special kind of shared
intention. Thus, we should see Sellars as an early advocate of an
expressivism of plans and intentions, and an early theorist of
collective intentionality. He supplemented this theory with a
sophisticated logic of intentions, a robust theory of the
categorical validity of normative expressions, a subtle way of
reconciling the cognitive and motivating aspects of moral judgment,
and much more-all within a strict nominalism that preserves
Sellars's commitment to naturalism. The Ethics of Wilfrid Sellars
offers the first systematic treatment of this sadly-neglected
aspect of Sellars's work, and demonstrates that his ethical
theory-just like his more widely-discussed epistemology-has much to
contribute to current debates.
