摘要

抽象的政治判断通常将规范性原则或直觉与对不同选择的可实现性及其潜在后果的经验事实的欣赏结合起来。区分政治理想主义和现实主义两派的一个有趣问题是,这些考虑是应该融入规范原则本身,还是应该分开考虑。乍一看,如果理论家关心的是指导政治判断,非理想或现实主义的理论(直接整合这些考虑)似乎更有吸引力。然而,在这篇文章中,我认为理想的理论化即使被实用主义关注(指导政治判断)的理论家也可能被认为是有价值的,因为它较少受到保守主义的影响。尽管如此,我仍然认为,不应放弃在现实世界中指导行动的目标。因此,我概述了从抽象的道德原则到具体的政治判断的四步方法,并将其应用于一个测试案例。

From Moral Principles to Political Judgments: The Case for Pragmatic Idealism
Abstract Political judgments usually combine a normative principle or intuition with an appreciation of empirical facts regarding the achievability of different options and their potential consequences. The interesting question dividing partisans of political idealism and realism is whether these kinds of considerations should be integrated into the normative principles themselves or considered apart. At first sight, if a theorist is concerned with guiding political judgments, non-ideal or realist theorizing (directly integrating such considerations) can seem more attractive. In this article, however, I argue that ideal theorizing might be considered valuable even by theorists moved by a pragmatic concern (guiding political judgments) because it is less exposed to conservatism. I nonetheless contend that the aim to guide action in the world as it is should not be abandoned. Therefore, I outline a four-step method for proceeding from abstract moral principles to concrete political judgments and apply it to a test case.
