This paper is a survey of several results concerning finite dualities, a special case of the famous Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP). In CSP, the point is to characterize a class C of objects X determined by constraints represented by the requirement of the existence of structure preserving mappings from X into special ones. In a finite duality, such a class C is characterized by the non-e...

Moral particularism is commonly presented as an alternative to ‘principleor rule-based’ approaches to ethics, such as consequentialism or Kantianism. This paper argues that particularists’ aversions to consequentialism stem not from a structural feature of consequentialism per se, but from substantial and structural axiological views traditionally associated with consequentialism.
