Conceptual engineering and conceptual ethics / edited by Alexis Burgess, Herman Cappelen, David Plunkett.

Livre

Edited by Oxford University Press. Oxford - 2019

Conceptual engineering is a newly flourishing branch of philosophy which investigates problems with our concepts and considers how they might be ameliorated: 'truth', for instance, is susceptible to paradox, and it's not clear what 'race' stands for. This is the first collective exploration of possibilities and problems of conceptual engineering.
