 There was no shortage of critics of these formal conditions. Wittgensteinians, who maintained that “moral” was a family resemblance term, denied that there are any necessary conditions for the application of the term. MacIntyre (1957), inspired by Sartre, argued that many moral judgments were neither universalizable nor (in Hare’s sense) prescriptive. Sprigge (1964) offered a quite different argument against universalizability, as did Winch (1965). And so it went. Nothing on the long list of formal conditions that were proposed achieved anything even close to consensus in the philosophical literature on the definition of morality.
