为什么规范性是必然的——布兰顿的“康德——黑格尔式”规范性论证

Why Normativity is Necessary: Brandom's “Kantian-Hegelian” Argument about Normativity

布兰顿发掘德国古典哲学的思想来探讨当代规范性问题,对当代哲学研究具有极大启发。首先,布兰顿通过论述康德的"规范性转向",指出康德规范思想中存在两个问题:规范境况的态度—依赖和规范内容的态度—独立之间的问题,概念内容与客观对象的关系问题。然后,布兰顿通过引入黑格尔相互承认的社会模式、增加回顾式重构来解决规范地位的问题;通过以实质的不相容性和推论性为条件来回答"概念内容—客观对象"问题,指出从表达维度到表征维度的认识过程就是从错误经验到揭示对象的渐进真理过程,从而建立了从认知内容到客观对象的联系。布兰顿的这种"康德—黑格尔式"的论证展现了规范性产生的必然性。

Brandom discussed contemporary normativity by exploiting classical German philosophy,which greatly inspired contemporary philosophical research.First of all,through discussing Kant’s“normative turn”,Brandom pointed out that there are two problems in Kant’s normative thinking:the tension between the idea that normative statuses are attitude dependent and the idea that construes normative contents as attitude independent;the relationship between the conceptual content and the object.Then,Brandom solved the problem of normative status by introducing Hegel’s mutually recognized social model and adding retrospective reconstruction,answered the question of“conceptual content-object”by conditioning substantial incompatibility and inferentiality,and pointed out that the process of understanding from the expression dimension to the representation dimension was the process of gradual truth from the wrong experience to revealing the object,establishing the connection from cognitive content to object.Brandom’s“Kantian-Hegelian”argument shows the inevitability of normativity.
