Abstract
- The aim of this work is to survey Putnam’s defense of objectivity and normativity in the ethic’s realm. I pretend to show an alternative conception of objectivity which involves a broader aproach to racionality than the scientific. Moreover, this approach acknowledges pluralities of points of view and it´s committed to reflective thinking about our assertions. Then, I will examine the question of objectivity in Putnam’s papers, according to different outlooks: firstly, Putnam’s rejection to the traditional fact-value dichotomy, secondly, the Logical Postivism’ claim and his attitude about values judgments, finally, from the survey of the term objectivity and his relationship with linguistic practices.
