I refer, of course, to the thesis presented by Alasdair MacIntyre in 1981 in his book After Virtue and elaborated in other books since. 1 Given the importance of this thesis within modern Angl oAmerican moral philosophy and the controversy it caused, I am under some obligation to begin my task of giving an overview of Anglo-American moral phil osophy by giving an overview of this overview of Anglo-American moral philosophy.
