What is distinctive of political normativity? From domain view to role view

In the last couple of years, increased attention has been directed at question whether there is such a thing as distinctively political normativity. With few exceptions, this so far only explored by realists. However, discussion about normativity raises methodological and meta-theoretical questions general importance for theory. Although terminology varies, it widely distributed phenomenon within theory to rely on normative source which said be rather than moral, or least foremost political. light concern, present paper moves beyond realism in attempt explore alternative ways understanding normativity, way may useful theorists. More specifically, we investigate two candidate views, here labelled “domain view” “role view,” respectively. The former traces distinctness “domain,” that is, circumstances politics. This view gained lot support literature recent years. latter “role,” role-specific demands normative-political principles make. Our twofold claim domain problematic but role promising.
