This book addresses critical issues in normative ethical theory.
Every such theory must contain not only a theory of motivation but
also a theory of value, and the link that is often forged between
what is valuable and what would be right is human welfare or
well-being. This topic is a subject of considerable controversy in
contemporary ethics, not least because of the current
reconsideration of utilitarianism. Indeed, there is as much
disagreement about the nature of value and its relationship to
welfare and morality, as there is about the substantive content of
normative ethical theories. The essays in this collection, all new
and written by a distinguished team of moral philosophers, provide
an overview, analysis, and an attempted resolution of those
controversies. They constitute the most rigorous available account
of the relationship among value, welfare, and morality.
