Abstract

Leading expressivist proposals characterize the mental state expressed in the making of a normative judgment solely in terms of intrinsic, psychological dispositions. As a result, they fail to capture a subset of the normative judgments that agents can and do make; they miss the way that external factors can influence what the making of a normative judgment looks like. This problem can be seen most plainly in the context of systemic oppression. Intuitively, one can make a normative judgment that conflicts with the oppressive ideas one has previously been conditioned to endorse, but expressivism seems to deny that this is possible. The expressivist's inability to count these avowals made under oppression as genuine normative judgments makes expressivism deficient as a metaethical theory.

压迫期间的回避
领先的表达主义建议仅从内在心理倾向的角度来表征在做出规范性判断时所表达的精神状态。因此,他们未能捕捉到代理人能够而且确实做出的规范性判断的子集;他们忽略了外部因素影响规范性判断的方式。这个问题在系统性压迫的背景下可以看得最清楚。直觉上,一个人可以做出一个规范性的判断,与之前习惯于认可的压迫性想法相冲突,但表现主义似乎否认这是可能的。表现主义者无法将这些在压迫下做出的声明视为真正的规范性判断,这使得表现主义作为一种元伦理理论存在缺陷。
