PUBLIC LECTURE: Moral Pragmatism:Thin Universals and Thick Practices

Given there is no consensus, in the history of philosophy or theology, about how a rational agent ought to solve complex moral dilemmas, Dr. Matthews will advocate that the thick theoretical differences that separate us are not as significant as the thin universals that unite us as rational moral agents. Dr Philip Matthews is Senior Lecturer and Undergraduate Coordinator of Philosophy at the School of Philosophy and Theology, University of Notre Dame, Fremantle
