Katrien Schaubroeck The normativity of what we care about

Looking for unity in variety, philosophers wonder why a consideration counts as a reason to do something....

Seneca How to do the right thing
an ancient guide to treating people fairly
"It doesn't take long after learning to speak for children to utter the cry, "That's not fair!" That familiar exclamation seems to emerge from a primal human sense: you know how you deserve to be treated, and you know that you have not been treated that way-you've been given a raw deal, you've not been done right by.
