Abstract
The non-reductionism in ethical naturalism is a kind of moral realism which acknowledges the real existence of moral properties and moral facts. It is against to reduce moral properties and moral facts to natural properties and natural facts. And it is also against to redefine moral language as natural language. It is not the kind of naturalism which Moore criticized in Principia Ethica ,but is a transition between Intuitionism and Naturalistic reductionism.
