First, we understand the word ethics to be focused on the way we seek to live our own life, and hence to connote a relativistic and essentially subjective perspective, whereas we understand the word morals to be focused on the way we should live our lives together, especially through sensitivity to viewpoints other than our own. Second, we perceive a usefulness in such a differentiation when the ethical values of those in a dilemmatic situation are conflicted in order to prioritize moral decision making in contemporary society. We argue that in our current era, characterized by a multiplicity of faiths and by pronounced value pluralism, a philosophical basis for moral decision making needs to be clearly attuned with intersubjectivity and interconnectivity among people. It should be able to determine principles of conduct toward others, no matter how one’s own ethical values, conceptions of the good, or life choices might differ from those of others. To do this, we relocate ethical decision making away from an essentially monological reflection on our own values and purposes into a social space wherein we have an inclusive, noncoercive, and reflective dialogue.]]> Thu 14 Mar 2019 16:49:45 AEDT ]]> Toleration, neutrality and historical illiteracy https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10631 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:13:48 AEDT ]]> John Gray, value pluralism and the limits of universalism https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34784 Mon 23 Sep 2019 10:08:04 AEST ]]> Toleration and its Possibilities: Relativism, Skepticism and Pluralism https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51724 Fri 15 Sep 2023 17:54:57 AEST ]]>
