Ep. 371: Christine Korsgaard on Normativity (Part One)

The Partially Examined Life Philosophy Podcast

On lectures 3 and 4 of The Sources of Normativity (1996), where we get Korsgaard's positive view on how morality becomes obligatory for an individual, which has to do with identity, reason-giving, and our fundamentally social nature. And yet, her view is an interpretation of Kant!
