ALEGRIA FUENTES, Daniela. Impartiality and Moral Particularism. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2019, n.56, pp.365-392. ISSN 0188-6649.  https://doi.org/10.21555/top.v0i56.961.

This article aims to present that moral particularism is a viable alternative to the dominant ethics of modernity to the present (i.e., Kantian and utilitarian ethics); theories that have been criticized during the last decades, especially, by the requirement of moral impartiality. The agent in these ethics deliberates impartially due to the universalism of moral principles. I will suggest that moral particularism, insofar as it excludes impartiality as a relevant factor in the agents’ deliberations, presents reasons to be a plausible ethics.

Palavras-chave : moral particularism; moral impartiality; ethical systems; moral partiality; moral universalism.
