Concerns over the erosion of a
comprehensive public conception
of morality are longstanding in
political philosophy, but while some
contemporary political philosophers
see the relevant cause as being an
increase in the acceptance of ethical
relativism, others see this trend as
the result of an increased intrusion
of a market-based ethos into various
social spheres that have traditionally
been the province of non-market
values. Thus while both accounts
agree on the normative claim that
there are certain values appropriate
to particular areas of our lives, and
on the descriptive claim that these
values seem to be under threat,
each postulate a different aetiology
for the perceived phenomenon. This
paper tentatively accepts the two
claims over which both accounts
agree, and examines the question
over which they do not; the issue
of causation, as well as looking at
the feasibility and desirability of
reversing the perceived progression.
Taking into account cross-cultural
longitudinal empirical studies of
attitudinal change towards various
socio-cultural issues, this paper
postulates in qualified accordance
with the first proposed aetiology,
suggesting ethical and cultural pluralism
to be prior to market forces,
while accepting the probability that
each play a significant role, and
looks at the likelihood and advisability
of change.
