Empirical ethics and its alleged meta-ethical fallacies
Bioethics 23 (4):193-201 (2009)
Abstract
This paper analyses the concept of empirical ethics as well as three meta-ethical fallacies that empirical ethics is said to face: the is-ought problem, the naturalistic fallacy and violation of the fact-value distinction. Moreover, it answers the question of whether empirical ethics (necessarily) commits these three basic meta-ethical fallacies.Author Profiles
