  • "The clip explains that people and cultures differ so widely that many philosophers wonder if there are any universal standards, even in morality. Over the past few decades, as most Western countries have experienced an increase in cultural diversity, we become aware that even our deepest beliefs are not the only way of looking at things. This is the point of departure for moral relativism, the view that there are a variety of possible moralities--among different cultures, historical periods, and individuals--with no single true morality. It is in this context that we grapple with such issues as moral relativism and the apparent paradox of tolerance, moral relativism and the giving of "good reasons," emotivism and moral language, and the difference between judging a complex situation morally and taking specific moral action."
  • "Poses the questions of how far morality is culturally determined and how far should the tolerance of differences extend. Discusses the concepts of moral relativism, moral absolutes, a potential core of universal ethics and emotivism with respect to such topics as genocide and child labour."@en
