Reflective Equilibrium in Theory and Practice


Overview

Reflective equilibrium is a method used in philosophy to achieve logical consistency and explanation in our beliefs and moral principles. It involves a process of balancing our intuitions, beliefs and theories to find a consistent and well-supported set of beliefs. The goal is to reach a state where our moral judgments and principles align with our broader understanding of the world and our values. In practical terms, reflective equilibrium starts by examining our initial moral intuitions and principles. We then adjust these beliefs by considering new evidence, arguments and experiences. This repetitive process continues until we achieve a harmonious balance where our beliefs are well-grounded and logically consistent with each other. Reflective equilibrium acknowledges that moral reasoning involves both intuition and rational reflection, aiming to refine our moral understanding. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of reflective equilibrium. The topics included in this book on philosophy are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. Through this book, we attempt to further enlighten the readers about the new concepts in this field.
