It reconfigures reflective equilibrium as both a cognitive ideal and a method for approximating this ideal. The ideal of reflective equilibrium is restructured using the concept of discursive strata, which are formed by sentences and differentiated by function. Sentences that perform the same kind of linguistic function constitute a stratum. The book shows how moral discourse can be analyzed into phenomenal, instrumental, and teleological strata, and the ideal of reflective equilibrium reworked in these terms. In addition, the work strengthens the method of reflective equilibrium by harnessing the resources of decision theory and inductive logic. It launches a comparative version of decision theory and employs this framework as a guide to moral theory choice. It also recruits quantitative inductive logic to inform a standard of inductive cogency. When used in tandem with comparative decision theory, this standard can aid in the effort to turn the undesirable condition of reflective disequilibrium into reflective equilibrium. 410 0$aTheory and Decision Library A:, Rational Choice in Practical Philosophy and Philosophy of Science,$x0921-3384 ;$v49 606 $aEthics 606 $aOperations research 606 $aDecision making 606 $aMathematics 606 $aSocial sciences 606 $aEthics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E14000 606 $aOperations Research/Decision Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/521000 606 $aMathematics in the Humanities and Social Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M32000 615 0$aEthics. 615 0$aOperations research. 615 0$aDecision making. 615 0$aMathematics. 615 0$aSocial sciences. 615 14$aEthics. 615 24$aOperations Research/Decision Theory. 615 24$aMathematics in the Humanities and Social Sciences. 676 $a10 676 $a170 676 $a519 676 $a658.40301 700 $aWelch$b John R$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01225650 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484149603321 996 $aMoral Strata$92845671 997 $aUNINA
