The Ethical Environment

Often one is well served by a readiness to revise one’s view of other people’s work. I have since early on had a dismissive attitude to the philosophy of Simon Blackburn, partly due to his contribution to a meta-ethical conversation that I as a student found dreary, and partly due to his negative review of Iris Murdoch’s Metaphysics as a Guide to Morals – a book I continue to find important. Recently, however, I came across one of his ideas in a context outside philosophy – in a popular book by the Swedish historian Sverker Sörlin – and was forced to reconsider.

First Centre blog: Human value (Hugo Stranberg)

Welcome to the Centre for Ethics blog! Here our researchers will write about questions they are thinking about at the moment.

Let me start off the blog by reflecting on the full name of the Centre: “Centre for Ethics as Study in Human Value.” What might “human value” mean? It is an expression I rarely use, if ever. So what sense can I make of it?
