DEFINITION
Quasi-realism is the meta-ethical view which claims that:
- Ethical sentences do not express propositions.
- Instead, ethical sentences project emotional attitudes as though they were real properties.
This makes quasi-realism a form of non-cognitivism or expressivism. Quasi-realism stands in opposition to other forms of non-cognitivism (such as emotivism and universal prescriptivism), as well as to all forms of cognitivism (including both moral realism and ethical subjectivism).
