A Critique of Objectivist Metaethics
Journal of Ayn Rand Studies 4 (2):305-320 (2003)
Abstract
Parrish critiques Tara Smith's defense of Objectivist metaethics. He argues that Smith fails to provide a successful defense of the Objectivist ethics and its standard of life as the ultimate value. Her theories lead to strongly counter-intuitive results and suggest larger problems for the Objectivist metaethics in general.Links
