In several of his dialogues, Plato suggests the possibility of
moral expertise. Rod Jenks takes up this question of moral
expertise as it is addressed in Laches, Charmides, The Republic,
and Theaetetus. Jenks shows that, while Plato does believe that
expertise is possible, the expert he countenances is internal to us
all, so that we need not fear the moral expert as some kind of
moral fascist. While we all know the moral truth, we also
occasionally entertain false moral beliefs. For this reason,
arriving at a systematically interrelated array of consistent
beliefs is crucial to our moral health, that is discovering moral
truth is akin to recovering something from within ourselves. Plato
on Moral Expertise will be of interest to professional philosophers
acquainted with and interested in Plato's work, graduate students
in philosophy and classics, and advanced undergraduates. This book
will be of interest to professional philosophers acquainted with
and interested in Plato's work, graduate students in philosophy and
classics, and advanced undergraduates.
