PHI 385 UCL Cohen on Korsgaard and Moral Obligation Philosophy Question
I’m working on a philosophy question and need guidance to help me study.
1: rewrite and reword the introduction and delete the 400-500 words to go straight to the korsggard’s theory on moral obligation
2: the presentation of korsgaard’s view need to be complete , need to explain what problems she is trying to solve. explain why she thinks that reflective endorsement together with the idea of practical identity successfully answers the normative problem and establishes reasons.
3,explain why, according to her, we have an obligation to be moral
4. the criticism of Encho is not relevant to the question (delete)
5. Cohen has a few criticisms of korsgaard’s view , suggest that you simplify things and focus on the mafioso
6. asking yourself why does the mafioso show that is a problem with her view? the key to the answer, according to Cohen, is that the mafioso is an example of a person who has his reasons grounded exactly in the way in which korsggard rcommends and yet reaches an immoral conclusion
