| contents | Forgiveness and Letting Go: Ways of Changing the Normative Landscape Dana Kay Nelkin Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales) Blame letting go forgiveness responsibility normative landscape Forgiveness is often distinguished from other ways of eliminating (or reducing) blame, such as letting go. In this paper, I focus on a conception of forgiveness as normative landscape change (alteration of the rights and obligations of relevant parties), and explore the distinction between forgiveness-understood in this way-and letting go. I highlight the explanatory power of this approach for distinguishing forgiveness and letting go, and contrast it with an alternative way, in which the focus is instead primarily on a kind of attitude change. I conclude by comparing the implications of both forgiveness and letting go for other phenomena we care about, such as reconciliation. 2023 artículo científico 0123-885X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=81576148003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/815/81576148003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/815/81576148003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/815/81576148003/81576148003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/815/81576148003/movil 10.7440/res86.2023.03 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=815 Revista de Estudios Sociales application/pdf Universidad de los Andes Revista de Estudios Sociales (Colombia) Num.86 |
