摘要

摘要: 道德概念与自然概念的关系是元伦理学领域的重要议题，自然主义者同意道德概念可以通过自然概念说明却被摩尔批判为“自然主义谬误”，博伊德提出属性稳态丛聚理论（homeostatic property cluster，以下简称HPC）以规避该批评。定义HPC类词项的内在属性间应具有因果联系，但对“善”概念进行的两个思想实验证明“善”概念不具有归纳推理适宜性，这意味着薄道德概念难以具备成为HPC概念的必要条件。厚道德概念由于含有丰富的描述性内容更有利于归纳。文章试将厚道德概念作为HPC概念定义并确定其丛聚属性，以维护部分道德概念的自然性、彰显道德概念的历史与社会维度。

Abstract: The relationship between moral concept and natural concept is an important topic in meta-ethics, and the argument of open question is one of the classic arguments of non-naturalistic position. From the perspective of HPC theory, ethical classes and natural classes are both homeostatic attribute cluster types, and ethical concepts have the same definition structure as natural concepts, so moral naturalism avoids the “naturalistic fallacy”. There should be a causal relationship between the intrinsic attributes of HPC terms, but two thought experiments on the concept of “good” prove that the concept of “good” is not suitable for inductive reasoning, which means that the concept of “good” is difficult to have the necessary conditions to become a HPC concept. Thick ethical concepts are more likely to become HPC terms because of their rich descriptive content. This paper tries to define the thick ethical concept as HPC concept and determine its clustering properties in order to maintain the naturalness of some ethical concepts.
