True Exceptions:Defeasibility and Particularism
2012
Sometimes, kinds of cases which do in fact fall under the antecedent of a conditional norm are reckoned recalcitrant. I.e., although they fall under the antecedent of the norm we do not wish to allow the consequence to follow. In such cases, we sometimes say that we are abandoning, or discarding, the norm. We concede, that is, that the alleged norm was wrong (or, if you wish, that it was no norm at all). At other times, however, it is claimed that the norm is a defeasible one. Granted, the case at hand is one of those in which the norm is defeated; but this, it is implied, does not amount to a wholesale abandonment of the norm itself. Being defeasible, the norm somehow survives the impact o…
Ragionamento giuridico. Particolarismo. In difesa di un approccio psicologistico
2017
Legal Reasoning, Particularism: In Defense of a Psychologistic Approach. In this paper I recommend a close examination of the reasons favouring a deep and potentially far reaching reorientation of legal theory, and of the theory of norms and norm-based reasoning and decision-making generally, namely, the adoption of a psychologistic approach (“psychodeontics”). I argue in favour of psychologism - not in the anstract, but - with reference to rwo particular topics: legal reasoning (specifically, the justification of judicial decisions) and the project of a of two-tier (principles v. rules) theory of law, informed by a particularistic conception of practical reasoning. I show that there are as…
Genealogia della normatività. La normatività come controllo
2018
In this paper I draw the outline of a psychological genealogy of normativity: an account of normativity as a complex neuro-psychological fact, entirely analysable in non-normative terms. As a first step, I introduce two of the main problems faced by the genealogical approach. I call the first one “Gibbard problem”: what kind of neuro-psychological state is normative judgment? I call the second one “irreducibility of normativity problem”: normative dynamics seem to be irreducible to causal dynamics. As a second step, I examine the “dual model” of the psychology of normative judgment developed by J. Haidt and J. Greene. I argue that the dual model is not able to solve the aforementioned probl…

La vía europea de la razón pública
2012
El futuro de Europa es una cuestión que aglutina todas las energías y recursos culturales, sin excluir a nadie. El elevado grado de conflictualidad presente en Europa se ha debido en buena parte a la consolidación de formas de vida nacionales, ligadas auna larga elaboración histórica en la que los aspectos religiosos y civiles se han entrelazado de modo inextricable. La amenaza representada por reivindicaciones de libertades despreocupadas del bien común invierte la óptica rawlsiana de la razón pública. ¿Cómo sociedades políticas preexistentes pueden acoger el pluralismo sin ser abrumadas por una progresiva e ineluctable fragmentación de la esfera pública?. La vía europea de la razón públic…
La fine dell'età dei diritti
2013
Norberto Bobbio’s introduced the expression “age of rights” to indicate the idea of an universal consensus on some values which can be interpreted as a signum prognosticum – in kantian terms – of mankind’s moral progress. The symbolic starting point of this age is the Universal Declaration of Human Rights proclaimed in 1948. In this paper the expression “the end of the age of rights” is value free and it is used to sign the replacement of the model of social organization imagined by Bobbio and many others after the second world-war in favour of a different model according to which human rights become a sort of lingua franca. As a consequence, it is not paradoxically at all to decree the end…
Reasons, Rules, Exceptions. Towards a Psychological Account
2018
In this paper we defend a psychological account of rule-based reasoning, specifically of the relationship between rules and exceptions. The topic of our inquiry are the relations between rules, the reasons underlying them, and exceptions. In analysing these relations, first, we outline an apparent paradox, the “paradox of rules”, and a related problem, the “problem of reconsideration”. Then, we propose a solution to, or better dissolution of, the paradox, grounded in an account of the psychological processes underlying rule-application and reconsideration. We claim, that is, that the problem of reconsideration should be answered by appealing to matters of sheer psychological fact. The upsho…
