| Summary: | 碩士 === 東吳大學 === 哲學系 === 102 === Moral dilemma is always a remarkable issue in popular or academic debates. This paper is an analysis of Williams' and Foot's arguments, concerning the relationship of moral dilemma and moral realism within the field of metaethics. In the development of the modern ethics, the debates have the following two aspects. Firstly, contrary to the traditional approach that the feelings of a moral agent are absent in moral debates, but now become the main theme of the argument, namely of the feelings of regret and guilt. Secondly, the concept of moral realism is proposed only formally in metaethical debates, but now clarified by Foot of its possible substantial content.
