Abstract

Open peer commentary on the article “Ethics: A Radical-constructivist Approach” by Andreas Quale. Upshot: I agree with Quale’s argument for the ethical neutrality of constructivism. However, I want to point out that radical constructivism does not proclaim itself to be ethically neutral. Additionally, I want to criticize the somewhat ambivalent use of the term “personal responsibility” and argue that constructivists need to rethink and ultimately drop the claim of responsibility following from constructivism
