Ep. 370: Christine Korsgaard on the History of Ethics (Part One)
On The Sources of Normativity (1996), lectures 1 and 2.
How are facts related to obligations? We don't want to merely explain our moral impulses, but justify them. Korsgaard walks us through the views of Hobbes, Hume, Bernard Williams and others to arrive at her own breed of Kantianism, which we'll lay out in ep. 371.
