Vayrynen, PP (2011) A Wrong Turn to Reasons? In: Brady, M, (ed.) New Waves in Metaethics. Palgrave MacMillan , 185 - 207. ISBN 0230251625
Abstract
This paper argues that the recent metaethical turn to reasons as the fundamental units of normativity offers no special advantage in explaining a variety of other normative and evaluative phenomena, unless perhaps a form of reductionism about reasons is adopted which is rejected by many of those who advocate turning to reasons.
