A ética no segundo Wittgenstein vista a partir de Loparic

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to discuss Loparic’s reading of the ethical implications of the Wittgensteinian notion of language-games. Contrary to his view that they lead to relativism and skepticism, I will argue that the so-called “Second Wittgenstein” give us the means to criticize cientificism and naturalism in Ethics and that they are not relativist. Moreover, I will show that Loparic’s comparative analysis between Heidegger and Wittgenstein is flawed precisely because the notion of language-games does not yield to skepticism.
