Von der hinteren Coverseite

This volume brings together papers from the 1998 RATIO conference on normativity. A prestigious team of contributors, including Peter Railton, John Skorupski, Frank Jackson, John Broome and Christopher Hookway come together to consider:

• What is the nautre of normative force?
  
• Is normativity itself subject ot sceptical attack?
  
• What are the relations between moral and epistemic normativity?
  
• How best should we understand the nature of a normative requirement?
  
• Can there be an expressivist conception of epistemic normativity?
  
• Can we suppose that there are normative beliefs or judgements without admitting the existence of normative facts?

The papers highlight many interesting interconnections (and disagreements) in the field of normativity.
