Article on Value Pluralism, Making Trade Offs and Policymaking

Last month I wrote an article for Sagacity Magazine (a postgraduate-run public philosophy publication, where I am also an editor) discussing some reasons why value pluralism might be a good view for people who want to take moral trade offs seriously. 

Some of the points I go over include: the potential risks involved in subsuming all good things under a single value (like well-being), using pluralism to account for rational regret and the possibility of using a 'super scale' to compare commensurable plural values.

I also cross-posted it over at my Substack, where I plan to post some more EA-adjacent stuff in the near future (including an article on my worry that some people on the political left are unreasonably polarising themselves against intergenerational justice vis-à-vis longtermism which I plan on posting in the coming week).
