- On_What_Matters abstract "On What Matters is a two-volume book of moral philosophy by Derek Parfit published in 2011. It is a follow-up to Parfit's 1984 book Reasons and Persons. The dust jacket states that the book is \"about reasons, values and morality\". The book is introduced by Samuel Scheffler.On What Matters defends an objective ethical theory and suggests that we have reasons to act that cannot be accounted for by subjective ethical theories. Furthermore, it attempts to present a moral theory that combines three traditional approaches in moral and political philosophy: Kantian deontology, consequentalism, and contractarianism (of the sort advocated by T. M. Scanlon, and from the tradition of Thomas Hobbes, John Locke and John Rawls). According to Parfit, these theories converge rather than disagree, \"climbing the same mountain on different sides\", in Parfit's metaphor.Parfit labels his synthesis of these three ethical theories the \"Triple Theory\":An act is wrong if and only if, or just when, such acts are disallowed by some principle that isone of the principles whose being universal laws would make things go best,one of the only principles whose being universal laws everyone could rationally will....a principle that no one could reasonably reject. On Parfit's view, these three criteria (a) represent the best versions of consequentialism, Kantian ethics, and contractarianism respectively, and (b) should generally agree in their recommendations. Both claims have proven controversial.".
