His research areas include metaethics and related subjects.</p> <p>In this episode, we talk about metaethics, and practical philosophy. We start by distinguishing metaethics from normative ethics and applied ethics. We talk about the main questions and approaches in metaethics. We get specifically into moral error theory, moral abolitionism, and moral nihilism. We also discuss what moral facts are. We talk about moral certitude. Finally, we discuss what practical philosophy is, and how it relates to theoretical philosophy.</p> <p>--</p> <p>A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: KARIN LIETZCKE, ANN BLANCHETTE, PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, BERNARDO SEIXAS, HERBERT GINTIS, OLAF ALEX, JONATHAN VISSER, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS,
