If Philosophy involves the use of specifically philosophical methods to explore issues outside the set of philosophical problems, then it is called ..................

  • A.Metaphysics
  • B.Epistemology
  • C.Applied Philosophy
  • D.Ethics

Answer: C

It is called Applied Philosophy.

Applied philosophy takes the methods of philosophy, conceptual analysis, argument and ethical reasoning, and uses them on questions arising outside the traditional set of philosophical problems: in medicine, law, business, technology, the environment and public policy.

Metaphysics, epistemology and ethics are themselves branches of the traditional set of philosophical problems, the nature of reality, of knowledge and of right action, so none of them fits the description of philosophy turned outward to other fields.
