Resumo

This chapter examines Charles Taylor's account of explanation in the human sciences, focusing on his concept of "practical reason." Nussbaum argues that Taylor's approach, which emphasizes the role of self-interpretation and strong evaluation in human action, offers a valuable alternative to traditional causal explanations. She explores how Taylor's framework allows for a more nuanced understanding of human motivation and moral reasoning, highlighting the importance of articulating and evaluating our deepest values. Nussbaum also discusses the implications of Taylor's work for social and political theory, suggesting that his emphasis on dialogue and mutual understanding can contribute to a more just and democratic society.
