The resistant effect of slurs: A nonpropositional, presuppositional account Moreno Zurita, Alba Pérez Navarro, Eduardo Slurs Resistance Cancelation Rejection Retraction Presupposition Resistencia Cancelación Rechazo Retractación Presuposición This paper has been funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation under the research project "Disagreement in Attitudes: Normativity, Affective Polarization and Disagreement" (PID2019-109764RB-I00), by the Regional Government of Andalusia under the research projects "Public Disagreements, Affective Polarization and Immigration in Andalusia" (B-HUM-459-UGR18) and "The Inferential Identification of Propositions: A Reconsideration of Classical Dichotomies in Metaphysics, Semantics and Pragmatics" (P18-FR-2907), and by the University of Granada under a "Contrato Puente" fellowship and the excellence unit FiloLab-UGR (UCE.PPP2017.04). The authors would also like to thank Alex Davies, Maria Jose Frapolli, Claudia Picazo, Andres Soria, and two anonymous reviewers for Daimon for their helpful comments and suggestions. The aim of this paper is to account for the resistance to cancelation, rejection, and retraction exhibited by slurs. The kind of explanation we offer is a presuppositional one. Like the most recent presuppositional accounts, moreover, ours is a nonpropositional presuppositional proposal. Our view is that, to be felicitous, utterances of sentences featuring slurs require certain components to be part of the common ground, but these components are not propositions, but world-orderings. El propósito de este artículo es dar cuenta de la resistencia a la cancelación, el rechazo y la retractación exhibida por los slurs. La explicación que ofrecemos es presuposicional. Como las teorías presuposicionales más recientes, además, la nuestra es una propuesta presuposicional no proposicional. Nuestra posición es que, para ser exitosas, las proferencias de oraciones que contienen slurs requieren que el common ground incluya ciertos componentes, pero estos componentes no son proposiciones, sino ordenamientos de mundos. 2021-10-14T07:00:54Z 2021-10-14T07:00:54Z 2021-09-07 journal article Moreno Zurita, A., & Pérez-Navarro, E.
