Description
In Situational Traits of Character, Candace L. Upton rejects the traditional philosophical view that character traits are global and argues that the contents of our characters are situational. This situational nature is supported by both normative considerations and metaphysics of dispositions. Upton concludes by demonstrating that the relevant and fruitful application of situational traits to debates concerning friendship and consequentialism yields important moral results.
