摘要:This paper aims to develop a new understanding of normativity basedupon the priority of the ordinary. By relying upon diverse sociological andphilosophical traditions, the paper seeks to emphasize the ordinary tacit assumptionswhich provide the basic structure of our experience of the world and its normativefeatures. The general argument is that, whereas sociological traditions of socialinteractionism shed new light upon the “empirical fact of normativity”, ordinarylanguage philosophy and pragmatism offer a theoretical account of normativitywhich is consistent with the picture of normativity which emerges out of theseempirical descriptions. The paper synthesizes the main achievements of thesetraditions into a unified account of normativity.
