Kantian morals and Humean motives
Philosophy and Phenomenological Research 68 (1):109–126 (2004)
| Abstract | The idea that moral imperatives are categorical is commonly used to support internalist claims about moral judgment. I argue that the categorical quality of moral requirements shows at most that moral motivation need not flow from a background desire to be moral. It does not show that moral judgments can motivate by themselves, or that amoralism is impossible. | |||||||||
