Abstract

Peter Winch, following Wittgenstein, was critical of the notion that philosophy could pass judgment on matters like the sense of words, the rationality of actions, or the validity of arguments. His critique had both what we might call a local strand – the insight that criteria of thought and action are not universal but vary between cultures and between practices – and a personal strand – the insight that those local criteria are ultimately given shape through the particular applications made of them by individuals. These strands are prominent, for instance, in Winch’s discussion of cross-cultural understanding as well as his treatment of the distinction between valid reasoning and illicit persuasion.
给非理性当人质?
继维特根斯坦之后,彼得·温奇(Peter Winch)批评了这样一种观念,即哲学可以对语言的意义、行为的合理性或论证的有效性等问题进行判断。他的批判既有我们所称的局部特征——即思想和行动的标准不是普遍的,而是因文化和实践而异的洞察力——也有个人特征——即这些局部标准最终是通过个人对它们的特殊应用而形成的洞察力。例如,在温奇对跨文化理解的讨论中,以及他对有效推理和非法说服之间区别的处理中,这些线索都很突出。
