- Meta Ethics- Intuitionism
- Strengths
- We act upon our intuition
- We recognise when we do something wrong even if we can't explain it
- Criticisms
- We cannot verify intuition as it's innate
- Everyone's intuition is subject to them
- We are self-interested beings
- Summary
- Ross- our intuition decides which Prima-Facie duties we follow through.
- Pritchard- we use reason + intuition
- Cognitive theory
- G.E. Moore- goodness is unanalysable therefore it is can be proven to be false /true
- Goodness+ known not defined- "Yellow is yellow and that is all there is to it"
- Ross' Prima-Facie duties
- Reparation- e.g. righting wrongs
- Beneficence- e.g. helping an old lady
- Justice- e.g treating people equally
- Fidelity- e.g. promise keeping
