The Lewd, the Rude and the Nasty: A Study of Thick Concepts in Ethics - Oxford Moral Theory
Vayrynen, Pekka (Professor of Moral Philosophy, Professor of Moral Philosophy, University of Leeds)
Väyrynen argues that thick concepts -- such as lewd and rude, selfish and cruel, courageous and kind -- are evaluative only as a matter of pragmatics. If thick concepts are not inherently evaluative in meaning, they cannot have the deep and distinctive significance they are often given in moral philosophy.
