Abstract

Reflective equilibrium is sometimes invoked as an ideal state of affairs, and sometimes as a method for reaching that same state. At the same time, its key 'inputs' vary according to the individual invoking it, from considered judgements, to abstract intuitions, to social-scientific facts, to wider normative theories. This panel treats reflective equilibrium as a method, and focuses in particular on the place and status of intuitions within it.
