Abstract

Over the past 30 years, the moral realism has become one of
the most debated issues in metaethics. The position has gained new
supporters and new approaches, especially in celebration of 100 years
of Principia Ethica. However, there is no consensus on how to
properly characterize a moral realistic position. This paper aims to
present some problems raised by critics about the objectivity that this
position defends.
