Natural Law

In the International Encyclopedia of Ethics (John Wiley and Sons, 2013), with Christopher Tollefsen.

Abstract: Natural law ethics forms a distinctive family of ethical theories, all of which take the human good, or human well-being, as central to their theoretical approach. After a period of diminishing influence following the Enlightenment, during which natural law theory was largely a matter for Catholic seminaries, natural ethics has seen a resurgence in recent decades in normative ethics, philosophy of law, political theory, and applied ethics.
