Contemporary virtue ethics

Stohr, K. (2006). Contemporary virtue ethics. Philosophy Compass, 1 (1): 22-7.

 Abstract: Within contemporary ethics, virtue ethics now seems to be permanently positioned as a major normative theory. Despite its popularity, however, it is often not very clear – even to virtue ethicists – what is included in the term. This article clarifies the territory by setting out some recent developments in virtue ethics. The article also explores the impact of the virtue ethics revival on metaethics and looks at the direction of future debate.
