Alasdair MacIntyre - How To Appear Virtuous Without Being So - The Facade Of Moral Consensus

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th and 21st century philosopher and moral theorist, Alasdair MacIntyre's essay "How To Seem Virtuous Without Being So". It focuses upon what he calls a "facade of moral consensus" in late modernity about moral education and about the virtues. As he notes, the appeals to virtue, character and the like do not represent a shared public morality, let along a systematic and coherent account of the virtues, but rather just a common moral rhetoric, used in ordinary life and in politics.
