From Valuing to Value : A Defense of Subjectivism
關於福祉和行動理由的主觀描述具有非凡的血統。規範性從代理人關心的東西流出的想法 - 似乎讓許多最優秀的道德觀者感到憤怒或更糟，尤其是因為它似乎威脅到了道德的地位，相互不理解籠罩在討論之上。
由一位有影響力的前主觀主義評論家撰寫的“重視價值”，主要歸功於評論家所指出的問題特徵，同時認為這種批評可能會被削弱，整體觀點也會變得難以理解。在他的散文集中，David Sobel並沒有退縮，承認理性和道德的主觀觀點之間真正緊張，但認為這種緊張不會破壞主觀主義。在本書中，主觀主義的基本承諾被澄清並顯示出相當合理和充滿動力，而對主觀主義的最有影響力的批評直接被解決。
Subjective accounts of well-being and reasons for action have a remarkable pedigree. The idea that normativity flows from what an agent cares about-that something is valuable because it is valued-has appealed to a wide range of great thinkers. But at the same time this idea has seemed to many of the best minds in ethics to be outrageous or worse, not least because it seems to threaten the status of morality. Mutual incomprehension looms over the discussion.
From Valuing to Value, written by an influential former critic of subjectivism, owns up to the problematic features to which critics have pointed while arguing that such criticisms can be blunted and the overall view rendered defensible. In this collection of his essays David Sobel does not shrink from acknowledging the real tension between subjective views of reasons and morality, yet argues that such a tension does not undermine subjectivism. In this volume the fundamental commitments of subjectivism are clarified and revealed to be rather plausible and well-motivated, while the most influential criticisms of subjectivism are straightforwardly addressed and found wanting.
