But could consequentialists have predicted with entire confidence the consequences of social changes that we now think were desirable? The last part of this book contains a double argument. One is that ethical theory is employed by humans in a state of semi-ignorance of relevant factors, grasping at likely truths and evolved intuitions. The other is that consequentialist considerations have a major role at the fundamental level, but much more in justification or criticism than in ethical discovery.
Ethics and Qualities of Life avoids over-simple, decontextualized accounts of ethical judgment and choice. Ethical theories evolve and can incorporate elements of seeming rivals. A case is made for assigning consequentialism a major role in justification or criticism of a moral order, but not in ethical discovery.
