Huw Price holds that a recognizable version of expressivism about normative and modal language can be “globalized” so as to apply to all areas of discourse. He focuses on globalizing the anti-representationalism of expressivist theories. By contrast, this paper’s topic is the seldom-discussed way Price seeks to globalize the expressivist view that “non-descriptive” discourse exhibits subjectivity. I argue that Price’s own argument against the possibility of a purely objective domain conflicts with his anti-representationalism and is self-undermining. I then defend a different strategy for arguing that a kind of subjectivity can emerge even in domains traditional expressivists have regarded as purely objective. I do so by using an account of assertoric practice to offer a new solution to a puzzle concerning how to describe contingent histories in the use of natural kind terms.

Huw Price 认为，关于规范和模态语言的可识别版本的表达主义可以“全球化”，以适用于所有话语领域。他专注于全球化表现主义理论的反表征主义。相比之下，本文的主题是普莱斯试图将“非描述性”话语表现出主观性的表现主义观点全球化的方式，这种方式很少被讨论。. 我认为普莱斯自己反对纯粹客观领域的可能性的论点与他的反表征主义相冲突并且是自我破坏的。然后，我为一种不同的策略辩护，认为即使在传统表现主义者视为纯粹客观的领域中也可能出现一种主观性。我通过使用断言实践的描述来为有关如何使用自然种类术语描述偶然历史的难题提供新的解决方案。
