Pojman ethics 8e_ppt_ch02
1.
Ethics: Discovering Right and
Wrong Louis P. Pojman and James Fieser 8th edition
2.
Chapter Two: Ethical
Relativism In the nineteenth century, Christian missionaries used coercion to change the customs of pagan tribal people. Since the nineteenth century, we’ve made progress in understanding cultural diversity. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
3.
Ethical Relativism: Key
Terms Ethnocentrism: The prejudicial view that interprets all of reality through the eyes of one’s own cultural beliefs and values. Moral objectivism: The view that there are universal and objective moral principles valid for all people and social environments. Ethical nihilism: The doctrine that no valid moral principles exist, that morality is a complete fiction. Ethical relativism: The view that there are no objective moral principles, but that such principles are human inventions. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
4.
Two Main Forms
of Ethical Relativism Subjective ethical relativism (Subjectivism) All moral principles are justified by virtue of their acceptance by an individual agent him- or herself. Conventional ethical relativism (Conventionalism) All moral principles are justified by virtue of their cultural acceptance. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
5.
Subjective Ethical Relativism
Morality depends directly on the individual, not on one’s culture or an objective value. Morality is like taste or aesthetic judgment; it is in the eye of the beholder. In this view, Adolf Hitler and Ted Bundy could be considered as moral as Gandhi, as long as each lived by his own standards. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
6.
Consequences of Subjectivism
Little or no interpersonal argument, criticism, or judgment is possible. In this view, morality does not help the minimal moral aim of preventing a Hobbesian state of nature. It implicitly assumes moral solipsism, a view that isolated individuals make up separate universes. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
7.
Conventional Ethical Relativism This
view states that there are no objective moral principles, but that all valid principles are justified by virtue of their cultural acceptance. It recognizes the social nature of morality. It also treats the principle of tolerance as an absolute moral principle. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
8.
The Diversity Thesis
What is considered morally right and wrong varies from society to society, so there are no universal moral standards held by all societies. It is an anthropological theory that acknowledges that moral rules differ from society to society. Sometimes referred to as cultural relativism. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
9.
The Dependency Thesis
All moral principles derive their validity from cultural acceptance. It asserts individual acts are right or wrong depending on the nature of the society in which they occur. Morality may be seen in a context that depends on the goals, wants, beliefs, history, and environment of the society in question. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
10.
Criticisms of Conventional Ethical
Relativism It undermines important values. It leads to subjectivism and moral solipsism. Moral diversity is exaggerated. Weak dependency does not imply relativism. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
11.
The Indeterminacy of
Language The indeterminacy of translation argument holds that languages are often so fundamentally different from each other that we cannot accurately translate concepts from one to another. This viewpoint holds that language is the essence of a culture and fundamentally shapes its reality. This seems to imply that each society’s moral principles depend on its unique linguistically grounded culture. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
12.
Conclusion Subjective ethical
relativism seems to boil down to anarchistic individualism. Conventional ethical relativism fails to deal adequately with the problem of the reformer, the question of defining a culture, and the whole enterprise of moral criticism. However, unless moral objectivism can make a positive case, relativism may survive criticisms as the default position. © 2017 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
