How does moral change happen? What leads to the overthrow or gradual
transformation of moral beliefs, ideals, and values? Change is one of
the most striking features of morality, yet it is poorly understood.
In this book, Cecilie Eriksen provides an illuminating map of the
dynamics, structure, and normativity of moral change. Through eight
narratives inspired by the legal domain and in dialogue with modern
moral philosophy, Eriksen discusses moral bias, conflict, progress,
and revolutions. She develops a context-sensitive understanding of
ethics and shows how we can harvest a knowledge of the past that will
enable us to build a better future.
