Metaethics - Quasi-Realism

Описание: Quasi-realists hold that moral judgments are expressions of noncognitive states such as attitudes and plans for action. At first sight, this is a thoroughly antirealist position: if moral judgments are not standard beliefs, then there is no room for moral truth, moral facts, or moral progress. But the quasi-realist attempts to show that we can vindicate these apparently realist notions, even from a noncognitivist, antirealist starting point. This video outlines the approach to quasi-realism developed by Simon Blackburn.
