ABSTRACT
There are at least two things that we might be talking about when talking of "the justification of morality". Very ambitiously, Sterna have set out to offer both kinds of justification. He wants to show how it is rational to be moral, and also show how the content of our moral requirements is fixed. Before commenting on the central strategy of Sterba's new view, the author comments on the goal that he has set himself. He writes that "what needs to be shown is that morality is rationally required". The master argument of Sterba's justification of morality some of them includes: we are rationally required to avoid begging questions, and when contemplating amoralism or immoralism, we avoid begging questions only if we: assign relevance to all and only applicable egoistic and altruistic reasons, and then strike a certain kind of compromise between them.
