- W2489655807 abstract "To this point, I have examined the distortions produced by conceiving of reason in modern terms. I have argued that in a so-called Age of Equality only some humans count as persons having equal worth. I have considered how post-Cartesian attacks on modern epistemologies undermine key pillars of support for formulations of race. What I have yet to do is determine, in the wake of modernism’s crumbling foundations, how we retain the normative force of moral terms like ‘justice’ while eliminating unsavory biases concerning who is deserving of justice. As I have discussed, one avenue for redress comes via mainstream criticisms of Cartesianism which challenge introspection, isolation, and representationalism and which challenge the idea that reason can be self-justifying. These objections entail an expansion of reason beyond logical methodologies for they insist that our concept of reason emphasizes embeddedness in a material and social world. While this allows us to recognize the importance and ineliminability of bias, it also weakens the normative force of moral concepts. In particular, the turning of attention outward allows for greater possibilities for diversity, but it also allows for greater possibilities for cultural relativism. Reason may no longer be wedded to internal procedures that are detached from the surrounding world, but it is also no longer wedded to pretensions of a God’s eye perspective, which in the past offered some hope of objectivity. Even though these anti-Cartesian alternatives do provide a pathway to a new understanding of reason, they do not solve every difficulty. More to the point, we may be stuck with perspectivalism, but if we want substantive moral concepts, we must be capable of defending them in ways that transcend our own particular biases." @default.
