Intuition, Reasoning, and Ethics
Annual joint conference of the Institute of Philosophy, Eötvös University
and the Hungarian Philosophical Association
Budapest, 19-20 September 2013
G. E. Moore's Principia Ethica was published 110 years ago. It exerted
enormous influence over ethics in the analytical tradition ever since.
Virtually all of its major claims have been questioned, along with the
meta-ethical approach it embodies, and the intuitionism, antinaturalism,
cognitivism and objectivism manifested in the Principia have been
considered untenable by many. With the renaissance of metaethics, however,
in the last third of the twentieth century, debates have been reignited
over antinaturalism, cognitivism and objectivism, while intuitions and
their epistemological status and worth have been a topic of growing
importance outside ethics as well. We welcome all submissions aiming
either at re-thinking, evaluating, developing or dismantling Moore's ideas
or contributing to the philosophical discussion of related themes inside
and outside of ethics, such as the nature of the good, the role of
intuition in philosophical reasoning, as well as naturalism and
anti-naturalism
This year the organizers of the conference intend to include a section in
English in the programme. Abstracts of talks of 25 minutes, in c. 200
words, should be sent to the e-mail address PrincipiaEthicaCX at gmail.com by
the end of June.
