    Part of a larger discussion

    Challenges→P.F. Strawson's reactive attitudes are constitutively oriented toward second-personal relations, meaning their intentional content is communicative even absent actual expression.

    Unexpressed reactive attitudes often lack the structural features of actual communication (comprehension, uptake, reciprocal recognition), suggesting communication is contingent, not constitutive.

    Key Terms

    Reciprocal recognition(Hegel's central concept)
    The idea that self-aware beings (like humans) need to acknowledge each other as equals and conscious agents in order to fully understand themselves—you can't know who you are without another person recognizing you as real.
    Structural features(as used in logic and philosophy)
    The basic pattern or framework that makes something work the way it does—like how a building's structure determines its shape.
    comprehension(Lewis's modes of meaning; distinguished from denotation)
    The class of possible or consistently thinkable things to which a term applies
    constitutive(an alternative type of relationship the grounding relation might be)
    Describes how something is made up of or formed from basic components that define its essential nature.

    contingent(De Interpretatione 12–13)
    Equated with 'possible'; on the two-sided interpretation, contingency excludes necessity (possibility implies non-necessity).
    reactive attitudes(Blame is given as the paradigm case of a reactive attitude)
    Attitudes that agents have towards other agents in response to those agents' behavior
    uptake(Speech act theory)
    The appropriate response by an addressee required for certain speech acts (such as betting) to be successfully performed.
