Does Ethics Really Need to be “De-Moralized”? Some Kantian Reflections
Kantian Ethics, Feminism, and Worries about Emotional Detachment
This essay is a much-revised version of my “Kantian Ethics and Claims of Detachment” (Baron, 1997). I am grateful to the editors at Penn State University Press for permitting me to use the material in that paper in this one. My essay addresses three criticisms of Kant’s ethics, all involving the notion of detachment: that it requires us to be detached from other persons (at the very least, to hold them at arm’s length); that it requires us to hav…
Friendship, Duties Regarding Specific Conditions of Persons, and the Virtues of Social Intercourse (TL 6
Gender Issues in the Criminal Law

Acting from Duty (GMS, 397…401)
Three Methods of Ethics
Three Methods of Ethics
Kantian Ethics Almost without Apology
A reappraisal on the emphasis on duty in Immanuel Kant's ethics is long overdue. Marcia W. Baron evaluates and for the most part defends Kantian ethics against two frequent criticisms: that duty plays too large a role, leaving no room for the supererogatory; and that Kant places too much value on acting from duty
Love and Respect in the Doctrine of Virtue
From Morality to Virtue
Henry Allison on Kant's Theory of Freedom
Henry Allison's very challenging and very rewarding book provides an analysis and defence of Kant's theory of freedom in both its theoretical and practical dimensions. His defence is qualified, acknowledging some “details” which are not defensible and some inconsistencies; however, “given a sympathetic understanding of transcendental idealism, a good case can be made for Kant's incompatibilistic conception of freedom” (p. 3). In addition to argui…
Freedom, Frailty, and Impurity
Part I raises some questions concerning the extent of our freedom on the view that Henry Allison's Kant's Theory of Freedom attributes to Kant, and the possibility, on that view, of weakness of will. Allison is correct to attribute to Kant the 'Incorporation Thesis': one is never compelled to do x just because one has a desire (even a very intense desire) to do x; a desire moves one to action only if one allows it to. But while the attribution se…
Kantian Ethics and Socialism
Kantian Ethics and Supererogation
Servility, critical deference and the deferential wife
The Alleged Moral Repugnance of Acting from Duty
Critique de l'idee selon laquelle une personne parfaitement morale desire et agit sans aucune idee que c'est ainsi qu'elle devrait agir
On De-Kantianizing the perfectly moral person
Hume's Noble Lie
Hume scholars have been anxious to point out that when Hume calls Justice, chastity and so on artificial virtues, he is in no way denying that they are real virtues. I shall argue that they are mistaken, and that anyone who wants to understand Hume's account of Justice and his category of artificial virtues must take seriously his choice of the word ‘artifice,’ recognizing that it means not only ‘Skill in designing and employing expedients,’ but …
