Abstract

Mark Schroeder has recently offered a solution to the problem of distinguishing between the so-called “right” and “wrong” kinds of reasons for attitudes like belief and admiration. Schroeder tries out two different strategies for making his solution work: the alethic strategy and the background-facts strategy. In this paper I argue that neither of Schroeder’s two strategies will do the trick. We are still left with the problem of distinguishing the right from the wrong kinds of reasons.
