This book features new research on incommensurability from philosophers who have shaped the field into what it is today, including John Broome, Ruth Chang and Wlodek Rabinowicz. The book covers four aspects relating to incommensurability. In the first part, the contributors synthesize research on the competing views of how to best explain incommensurability. Part II illustrates how incommensurability can help us deal with seemingly insurmountable problems in ethical theory and population ethics. The contributors address the Repugnant Conclusion, the Mere Addition Paradox and so-called Spectrum Arguments. The chapters in Part III outline and summarize problems caused by incommensurability for decision theory. Finally, Part IV tackles topics related to risk, uncertainty and incommensurability. Value Incommensurability: Ethics, Risk, and Decision-Making will be of interest to researchers and advanced students working in ethical theory, decision theory, action theory, and philosophy of economics"-- Provided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in ethics and moral theory. 517 $aValue Incommensurability 606 $aComparison (Philosophy) 615 0$aComparison (Philosophy) 676 $a170 702 $aAndersson$b Henrik 702 $aHerlitz$b Anders 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910774787103321 996 $aValue Incommensurability$92944626 997 $aUNINA
