| Summary: | Moral judgement is one of many practice or method of historians in writing history. A philosophical attitude in perceiving the practice of moral judgement in historiography is by questioning the validity of this practice in historical method; whether it should be adopted by historians or not. In light of this, historians since the Early Modern Age have laid down arguments challenging the intellectual foundation of the practice of moral judgement in historiography. Departing from the previous era of Western historiography, the Rankean method which disavowed moral judgement in historiography had become the mainstream historical method. Notwithstanding, not few historians have stood up to defend the practice of moral judgement in historiography with intellectual arguments and justifications. |
