Richard Swinburne offers an original treatment of a question at the heart of epistemology: what makes a belief rational, or justified in holding? He maps the rival accounts of philosophers on epistemic justification ("internalist" and "externalist"), arguing that they are really accounts of different concepts. He distinguishes between synchronic justification (justification at a time) and diachronic justification (synchronic justification resulting from adequate investigation)--both internalist and externalist. He also argues that most kinds of justification are worth having because they are indicative of truth; however, it is only justification of internalist kinds that can guide a believer's actions. Swinburne goes on to show the usefulness of the probability calculus in elucidating how empirical evidence makes beliefs probably true.

Jürgen Habermas, on le sait, tient l'usage de communication du langage pour constitutif de la vie sociale : il définit les normes, les valeurs, les rôles nécessaires à toute communauté, il est ce sans quoi il n'y aurait pas même de société possible. Or, cette théorie critique de la morale, du droit et de la démocratie s'appuie sur une pragmatique du langage, elle requiert l'explicitation des catégories qui rendent possible l'entente rationnelle avec autrui à propos de la vérité des faits, de la justesse des actes et des normes : vérité et objectivité, réalité et référence, validité et rationalité. Ces catégories, Habermas les reprend aujourd'hui du point de vue de la philosophie théorique, passée au second plan, chez lui, depuis Connaissance et intérêt (1976). Ici, donc, nulle dissertation métaphysique sur la vérité de l'être, épistémologique sur la connaissance des objets, ou sémantique sur la forme des propositions énonciatives ; mais la formulation nouvelle de deux questions clés pour la philosophie. D'une part, la question ontologique du naturalisme : comment concilier la contingence du développement historique et naturel des formes de la vie socioculturelle avec la normativité - inéluctable du point de vue des participants à l'activité communicationnelle et propre à un monde vécu structuré par le langage, dans lequel nous nous trouvons " toujours déjà " en tant que sujets capables de parler et d'agir ? D'autre part, la question épistémologique du réalisme : comment concilier le postulat d'un monde indépendant de nos descriptions et identique pour tous les observateurs, avec la découverte de la philosophie du langage, selon laquelle nous ne disposons d'aucun accès direct, non médiatisé par le langage, à la réalité " nue " ? Deux questions qui permettent à Habermas - au terme d'une explication serrée avec les plus récents développements de la philosophie analytique et du pragmatisme américain - de penser à nouveaux frais le rapport entre philosophie théorique et philosophie pratique.

A Japanese woman living in California attempts parent-child suicide, an ancient Japanese custom called "oyako-shinju," in order to rid herself of shame upon learning that her husband has a mistress. She survives, but her two children are drowned in the attempt. Since her attempt was made in accordance with the standards of Japanese culture, should she be tried by the standards and laws of the United States? Are there universally valid moral principles that dictate what is right? Or are moral judgments culturally relative, ultimately dictated by conventions and practices that vary among societies? In Practices and Principles, Mark Tunick takes up the debate between universalists and relativists, and, in political philosophy, between communitarians and liberals, each of which has roots in an earlier debate between Kant and Hegel. Tunick focuses on three case studies: promises, contract law, and the Fourth Amendment issue of privacy. In his analysis, he rejects both uncritical deference to social practice and draconian adherence to principles when making legal and ethical judgments. He argues that we do not always need to choose between abstract principles and social practices. Sometimes we appeal to both; sometimes we need to appeal to shared social norms; and sometimes, where there is no ethical community, we can appeal only to principles. Ultimately, Tunick rejects simplified arguments that force us to choose between either practices or principles, universalism or relativism, and liberalism or communitarianism.
