Empathy and Moral Judgment
In Heidi Maibom (ed.), The Routledge Handbook of the Philosophy of Empathy. Routledge (2017)
Abstract
Empathic feelings seem to causally influence our moral judgments at least sometimes. But is empathy necessary for our ability to make moral judgments? And is it a good thing if our judgments are based on empathy? This chapter examines the contemporary debate on these issues.Author's Profile
