Abstract

When asked which of our concepts are normative concepts, metaethicists would be quick to list such concepts as good, ought, and reason. When asked why such concepts belong on the list, metaethicists would be much slower to respond. Eklund (2017) is a notable exception. He argues by elimination for “the Normative Role view” that normative concepts are normative in virtue of having a “normative role” or being “used normatively” (2017, p. 79). One view that Eklund aims to eliminate is “the Metaphysical view” that normative concepts are normative in virtue of referring to normative properties (2017, p. 71).2 In addition to arguing that Eklund’s objection looks doubtful by its own lights, we argue that there are several plausible versions of the Metaphysical view that Eklund doesn’t eliminate, defending various claims about normative concepts and their relationships to deliberation, competence, reference, and possession along the way.
是什么使规范性概念成为规范性的
当被问及我们的哪些概念是规范概念时,元伦理学家会很快列出诸如“好”、“应当”和“理性”等概念。当被问及为什么这些概念属于清单时,元伦理学家的回答要慢得多。Eklund(2017)是一个明显的例外。他通过消除“规范性角色观”,认为规范性概念是规范性的,因为它具有“规范性角色”或“规范性使用”(2017,第79页)。埃克伦德旨在消除的一种观点是“形而上学观点”,即规范性概念是规范性的,因为它涉及规范性属性(2017,第71页)除了认为埃克伦德的反对意见本身就令人怀疑之外,我们还认为埃克伦德并没有排除几个看似合理的形而上学观点版本,并在此过程中捍卫了关于规范概念及其与审议、能力、参考和占有的关系的各种主张。
