Description
The thesis of On Justifying Moral Judgments insists that rigorous justifications are possible for moral judgments. Crucially, Becker argues for the coordination of the three main approaches to moral theory: axiology, deontology, and agent morality. A pluralistic account of the concept of value is expounded, and a solution to the problem of ultimate justification is suggested. Analyses of valuation, evaluation, the ''is-ought'' issue, and the concepts of obligation, responsibility and the good person are all incorporated into the main line of argument.
