Morality Through Thick and Thin: A Critical Notice of E thics and the Limits of Philosophy
Philosophical Review 96 (3):411-434 (1987)

Scheffler discusses the role of thick concepts in the context of Williams’s main ethical book. He is critical of Williams’s distinction between thick and thin concepts, pointing out that with great problems, justice cannot be said to be either thick or thin.Author's Profile
