Description

Although demonstrating an objective morality is impossible, the implications of using human moral preferences as a foundation for orderly discussions about ethics are often unclear in moral philosophy, both inside and outside academic settings. This ambiguity may stem from a fear of slipping into unjustified moral relativism. This book aims to bring clarity to moral reasoning based on this foundation. To achieve this, the author utilizes the tools of modern economic analysis and game theory, which are particularly effective for studying decision-making. The initial chapters focus on outlining the approach and its rationale. Subsequently, this framework is applied to a wide range of moral and political questions.
