What these characterizations may all have in common is the more fundamental claim that humans are normative animals, in the sense that they are creatures whose lives are structured at a fundamental level by their relationships to norms. The various capacities singled out by discussion of rational, linguistic, cultural, or moral animals might then all essentially involve an orientation to obligations, permissions and prohibitions. And, if this is so, then perhaps it is a basic susceptibility, or proclivity to normative or deontic regulation of thought and behaviour that enables humans to develop the various specific features of their life form.0This volume of new essays investigates the claim that humans are essentially normative animals in this sense. The contributors do so by looking at the nature and relations of three types of norms, or putative norms-social, moral, and linguistic-and asking whether they might all be different expressions of one basic structure unique to humankind. These questions are posed by philosophers, primatologists, behavioural biologists, psychologists, linguists, and cultural anthropologists, who have0collaborated on this topic for many years. The contributors are committed to the idea that understanding normativity is a two-way process, involving a close interaction between conceptual clarification and empirical research. 650 0 $a Social norms. 650 0 $a Normativity (Ethics) 650 0 $a Standard language. 700 1 $a Roughley, Neil, $e editor. 700 1 $a Bayertz, Kurt, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Normative animal? $d New York, NY : Oxford University Press, [2019] $z 9780190846473 $w (DLC) 2018053710 830 0 $a Foundations of human interaction 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20191105022409.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A34A3E16CFA311E9B77D544F97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
