Oxford Studies in Normative Ethics: Volume 12

This series aims to provide, on an annual basis, some of the best contemporary work in the field of normative ethical theory. Each volume features new chapters that contribute to an understanding of a wide range of issues and positions in normative ethical theory, and represents a sampling of recent developments in this field. This twelfth volume brings together thirteen new essays, each by a different contributor, that collectively cover a range of fundamental topics in the field. The topics are: the vices of greed and arrogance, harmless wronging, Kantian ethical theory and partialist reasons, moral contractualism, explaining value comparisons in cases of parity, weighing reasons for action, the burdens of trust, attributive silencing, forgiveness, offsetting harm, paternalism and interpreting others, consequentializing moral theories, and the nature of moral worth.
