ALASDAIR MACINTYRE ON RATIONALITY

Summary/Abstract: In this article we introduce some ideas on rationality of the philosopher Alasdair MacIntyre. In the introduction, elements that have influenced MacIntyre’s concept of rationality are briefly introduced: the question of moral philosophy. In the two subsequent sections, two concepts of rationality are reviewed: encyclopedic rationality, and genealogical rationality. The subsequent sections explore MacIntyre’s ideas on rationality with the following elements: practice, narration, epistemological crisis, and telos. In the fifth section, the idea of substantial rationality is considered, and in the final section two critical observations are proposed regarding MacIntyre’s idea of rationality: these are relativism and the rationality of evil practices, introducing MacIntyre’s possible answer to these problems.
