Neera Badhwar has given us a rich, subtle and humane philosophical portrait of human flourishing, marrying the critical bite of Aristotelian theories with the subjective attractions of modern accounts, and providing an exceptionally thoughtful discussion of the significance of autonomy and reality-orientation for human well-being (Badhwar 2014). It is an important contribution to the debate regarding Aristotelian theories of well-being, which for my money are the most formidable of the traditional players in philosophical debates about well-being. What I’d like to do here is press Badhwar on two issues: the empirical adequacy of her account, and the connection between well-being and virtue.

Badhwar, Well-Being: 幸福生活的评论

尼拉·巴德瓦尔 (Neera Badhwar) 为我们描绘了人类繁荣的丰富、微妙和人性化的哲学画像，将亚里士多德理论的批判性观点与现代叙述的主观吸引力相结合，并就自治和现实导向对人类健康的重要性进行了非常深思熟虑的讨论-存在（Badhwar 2014）。这是对关于亚里士多德幸福理论的辩论的重要贡献，在我看来，这是关于幸福的哲学辩论中最强大的传统参与者。我想在这里做的是在两个问题上向 Badhwar 施压：她叙述的经验充分性，以及幸福与美德之间的联系。
