2. Judging the Context (Tier 1)
Moral Judgments about other cultures
(or about bygone historical epochs):
are legitimate
cannot be avoided if important matters (human right issues) are at stake
can (only) be made on the basis of
one's own set of values, that is:
- the greatest common subset of values does not provide a sufficient basis
- they cannot be made on the basis of the values of the context that is judged itself
