Similarly, many figures from the history of philosophy have their thoughts cast in a normative manner. There has been so much written recently about the very idea of normativity that we need to take stock of where we are and think about how present work might point to future thought. In this introduction I summarize various trends of thought, questions and ideas that philosophers have recently discussed and use these as a platform to speculate as to what directions there might be for future work about normativity. I end by summarizing the chapters in this volume whilst tying them to my previous thoughts"--
