The fittingness relation refers to the relationship between a response and a feature of the world when the latter merits or is worthy of that response. During the late 19th to mid-20th century, this notion gained significant prominence in the theories of the era's most influential ethical theorists, and in recent years, it has reemerged, promising to enrich the theoretical resources of contemporary philosophers working in the philosophy of normativity. This volume represents the first comprehensive exploration of the concept of fittingness to date. Comprising seventeen new essays, it covers a wide range of topics, including the nature and epistemology of fittingness, the relationship between fittingness and reasons, the normativity of fittingness, fittingness and value theory, and the role of fittingness in theorizing about responsibility. In addition to making significant contributions to the debates in the philosophy of normativity with which they are concerned, the essays in this volume provide support for the hypothesis that the notion of fittingness possesses remarkable theoretical utility in investigating a diverse range of normative matters across various domains.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 746g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 x 160 x 27 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780192895882\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44513615839482,"sku":"9780192895882","price":125.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1692369031035_book.jpg?v=1692796306","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/fittingness-essays-in-the-philosophy-of-normativity-9780192895882","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
