Poster (pdf): here...
A promising approach to morality emphasizes its connection to a special kind of interpersonal relation. According to this approach, by complying with moral norms, we are able to relate to others on a basis of mutual respect. Moral normativity is bilateral or relational, insofar as it involves demands that are traceable to the claims or entitlements of other individuals. The goal of the lectures will be to identify and assess some of the most important elements in this bilateral approach to the moral domain.
R. Jay Wallace is professor of philosophy at the University of Califormia, Berkeley. He works in moral philosophy. Prof. Wallace's interests extend to all parts of the subject (including its history), and to such allied areas as political philosophy, philosophy of law, and philosophy of action.
