o fim da ética

In fact on a realistic theory of possible worlds they are all going to exist anyway, and so a truly universalistic ethics collapses [...]. The only sort of ethics that a realistic theory of possible worlds would allow would be an ethics of the speaker's own world, and this would be a particularist ethics, much as an ethics that considered only the good of one's own tribe or nation.
