A Taxonomy of Moral Realism

Abstract of taxonomy of moral realism: controversy of moral realism has broad meaning to moral ontology, epistemology and semantics. The general view is that this discussion involves the core of the phenomenology of moral values ​​and influences the way to understand moral values, moral differences and the nature of moral reflex. However, the content of moral realism theory is not clearly shown. We distinguished three different versions of the theory and provided a framework showing the interrelationship between them.

(1) Morality has some authority over us. (2) (Naturalists) Moral realism eliminates such authority or moral realism can not fully explain this authority. Therefore, (naturalistic) moral realism must be fake. There are two obvious strategies to answer this argument. First of all, in every moral system I have encountered so far, I always say that the author has done it with ordinary reasoning and established about the existence or personality of God. I was surprised to find that it was not a mating of ordinary propositions, but I did not encounter a proposition that should not be related. This change is difficult to detect, but the final result is

Realism - The essential argument of realism is skeptic about whether moral concepts such as justice can be applied to international problems. Realityist supporters believe that the concept of morality should never be prescribed and should not restrict the behavior of the state. Instead, the country should emphasize national security and its own interests. The form of realism - descriptive realism - suggests that the state can not act based on morality, but another form - normative realism - considers the incentive of the country to be self-interest. The war just contrary to the principle of war, in reality constitutes a division of realism.
