Show Chapter I. General Introduction to the Project: The Enterprise of Socratic Metaethics 46 instability of accumulated power might lead him to reconsider the value of the Socratic ideal. One final caveat. Volume II covers a great deal of territory. Some readers may experience it as a free fall off a steep cliff; a plunge from the metaethical paradise of philosophy of language, logic, and decision theory with which I begin into the casuistical netherworld of xenophobia and political discrimination with which I conclude. I try to maximize the reader's attention to the connections and continuities between these extremes, so as to minimize the bumpiness of the ride down. But such readers are advised to fasten their seatbelts nevertheless. © Adrian Piper Research Archive Foundation Berlin |
