The concept of preference plays a central role in much recent moral and political philosophy. Partly because of its pedigree in such widely admired disciplines as economics and decision theory, its status seems secure. Preferences are taken by various philosophers to provide everything from a starting point for moral inquiry to the sole factor elected officials should take into account. My aim in this essay is to call that status into question. I shall argue that the concept of preference cannot bear the theoretical weight in normative inquiry that it has been asked to support. The argument has two parts. The first examines the place of actual or “revealed” preference in moral argument, and shows how it fails to meet even minimal standards as an account of practical reason. The second part considers more sophisticated accounts of ideal or considered preferences, arguing that although they have enough structure to function in accounts of practical reason, their employment presupposes independent standards. This needn't be a damning criticism, except for the manner in which advocates of preference-based accounts maintain that those accounts do not incorporate any controversial normative claims. Much of the appeal of preference-based accounts of practical reason stems from their promise of providing a normative account of practical reason using minimal formal constraints of consistency and the prior motivations of the agent in question.

This book ends with an examination of what happened when sorority and fraternity houses were shuttered, and their organizations’ programming moved online. The Coronavirus-19 pandemic upended society by essentially shutting it down for a season. Running alongside the ongoing concerns about public health was a parallel concern about the mental health of young adults. As experts in the relationship business, sororities and fraternities were uniquely poised to provide college students with what they most craved: peer friendship. Taking a close look at sorority and fraternity life in the time of COVID reveals fascinating insights into the allure of these organizations at the same time as it allows society to imagine a world without them. The global pandemic, I argue, doesn’t make a case on whether these organizations should stay or go, but rather, fundamentally changes the question to something that might have an easier answer.
