PHIL 50.22 Value
What is it for something to be valuable or disvaluable? Are there irreducible truths about value? Are knowledge and achievement per se valuable? Or can their value ultimately be explained by the value of happiness? Are persons valuable in a way that cannot be captured by the sum total of their happiness, knowledge, and the like? What role should truths about value play in ethics as a whole?
