In Honor, History, and Relationship Stephen Darwall explores the idea of a secondpersonal framework for morality and its foundations, in which we are committed to morality by presuppositions that are inescapable when we relate to others (person to person). He expands on the argument set forth in The SecondPerson Standpoint to explore the secondpersonal framework in three further settings. The first concerns a fundamental difference between the form that respect and the concept of person take in honor cultures, on the one hand, and the shape these assume in morality conceived as equal accountability, on the other. One essay explores this difference directly while others investigate related themes of justice versus retaliation and vengeance for insult and injury to honor, including in the writings of Adam Smith and Nietzsche on ressentiment. A second setting concerns the role of secondpersonal ideas in the development of a distinctively 'modern' moral philosophy, beginning in seventeenthcentury Europe. Two essays here discuss the centrality of secondpersonal notions in two formative modern natural law theorists: Grotius and Pufendorf. And two others concentrate on the role of reciprocal recognition in Kant and Fichte, respectively. A third group of essays treat the secondpersonal structure of interpersonal relations. There are three essays in this group: one on promising as a secondpersonal transaction between promiser and promisee, a second on what it is to be with another person, and a third on the role of secondpersonal standing in personal relationships.
