Abstract
In recent ethical writing of a realist bent there is an increasing appreciation of the ‘situatedness’ of moral cognition. This manifests itself, first, in the contextualist idea that the nature and influence of moral reasons cannot be understood unless agents are seen as situated in traditions of moral thought and practice, traditions that contribute to the character of moral reality and that empower agents to discern its nature, and second, in the particularistview that the structure of moral reality is not best captured by systems of moral principles; moral judgement involves a sensitivity to context which outruns anything moral rules can establish.
