Resilience and Sorites in the Normative Domain and Beyond

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The sorites paradox is central to theories on vagueness, which aim to explain apparent contradictions. Some theories, however, imply sharp cut‐offs where we would, intuitively, not expect them. This paper invokes the notion of normative resilience to address this issue.
