Lawlor, R orcid.org/0000-0002-9621-2977 (2009) Against Moral Theories - Reply to Benatar. Journal of Medical Ethics, 34 (11). pp. 826-828. ISSN 0306-6800
Abstract
Although sympathetic to my claims (“Moral theories in teaching applied ethics”), D Benatar argues that I have overlooked important roles that could be played by moral theories in the teaching of applied ethics. In this reply, I will consider the cases that Benatar suggests and, for each, I will suggest that there is an alternative approach which, as well as avoiding the costs discussed in my original paper, will also be a more effective response to that particular issue.
