Don't Be Ridiculous; Bibliography; Index 330 $aIn this new edition of Foundations for Moral Relativism, a distinguished moral philosopher tames a bugbear of current debate about cultural difference. J. David Velleman shows that different communities can indeed be subject to incompatible moralities, because their local mores are rationally binding. At the same time, he explains why the mores of different communities, even when incompatible, are still variations on the same moral themes. The book thus maps out a universe of many moral worlds without, as Velleman puts it, ?moral black holes?. The six self-standing chapters discuss such diverse topics as online avatars and virtual worlds, lying in Russian and truth-telling in Quechua, the pleasure of solitude and the fear of absurdity. Accessibly written, Foundations for Moral Relativism presupposes no prior training in philosophy. 606 $aEthical relativism 610 $amoral relativism 610 $aethics 610 $asocial philosophy 610 $amoral disagreement 610 $ametaethics 610 $aperspectivalism 610 $amoral philosophy 610 $aImmanuel Kant 610 $aMorality 610 $aSherpa people 610 $aVirtual world 615 0$aEthical relativism. 676 $a171.7 700 $aVelleman$b J.
