Consent-conditions(in ethics and philosophy of obligation): Requirements or situations where someone agrees to or accepts something, and these agreements are treated as important for determining what happens next.
Deontological accounts(in ethics): Ethical theories that focus on rules, duties, and what is right or wrong in themselves, rather than outcomes or consequences.
Dispensable(in philosophy): Not absolutely necessary; able to be removed or done without while still having a working system.
Gatekeepers(as metaphor in philosophy): Things that control or determine whether something else can happen—like a bouncer deciding who gets into a club.
Obligation-generating acts(in ethics): Actions that create duties or responsibilities—things you become required to do because of what happened.
Over-privileges(in philosophical criticism): Gives too much importance or priority to something, treating it as more fundamental than it deserves to be.
Voluntarist framework(in ethics and philosophy of obligation): A theory that says things like obligations come into existence mainly through voluntary choices or agreements that people make.
positing(Fichtean model of self-consciousness): The act by which the I establishes or asserts being — both its own being and, through limitation, the being of the non-I
