O ne of the main traits characterizing<br />
human beings is the fact that they are<br />
beings who have different sorts of reasons to<br />
believe something or to act in a certain way.<br />
The reasons they have help us understand<br />
why they believe what they believe, and act<br />
as they act. Human beings, however, do not<br />
have only theoretical and practical reasons<br />
to believe or to do something. They can also<br />
learn to assess critically the quality of their<br />
reasons. Herein lies their rationality.<br />

Actions, Normativity<br />
and History<br />

In the essays collected in this volume I try<br />
to clarify certain concepts and ideas which<br />
are basic in practical philosophy. What are<br />
‘actions’ as opposed to events? What does<br />
count as an ‚explanation‘ of human behaviour?<br />
When do we say that our beliefs, opinions,<br />
actions, decisions and pl<strong>ans</strong> are ‚rational‘?<br />
What are ‚norms‘? What are ‚conventions‘? In<br />
what precise sense is technological knowledge<br />
practical knowledge? What is ‚philosophy of<br />
history‘ all about?
