Bernard Williams - Unavoidable Human Prejudice

Bernard Williams is an English moral philosopher of 20th century. He is well known for being critical of utilitarianism. He is described to be "analytic philosopher with the soul of a humanist" and is an avid admirer of Friedrich Nietzsche. He is well-known for questioning orthodoxies and traditional claims made in ethics. Williams also is an atheist.

Gilbert Ryle said that Williams "understands what you're going to say better than you understand it yourself, and sees all the possible objections to it, all the possible answers to all the possible objections, before you've got to the end of your sentence."

In this talk, Williams talks about unavoidable human prejudice and Singerian utilitarianism.
