Closereads: Peter Railton’s “Moral Realism” (Wrap Up)

Sign up for Closereads at patreon.com/closereadsphilosophy to get previous and future installments of this podcast. We are concluding our treatment of Peter Railton's "Moral Realism" (1984), and given that you likely haven't listened to the seven preceding parts, or (like us) you've forgotten things from them, this discussion can serve as a standalone summary of not only Railton's view, but of our efforts to actually figure out what a plausible naturalistic, empirical account of ethics could amount to. Read along with us, starting on PDF p. 42. The post Closereads: Peter Railton’s “Moral Realism” (Wrap Up) first appeared on The Partially Examined Life Philosophy Podcast.
