| Abstract
|
:
|
Practical conflicts pervade human life because different desires, goals, and commitments may conflict with each other. How can practical reasoning help to resolve these practical conflicts? A distinguished group of philosophers analyzes the diverse forms of practical conflict in this collection of new essays. Their aim is to identify the sources of these conflicts, investigate the challenge they pose to a conception of practical reasoning, and assess the degree to which that challenge can be met.
