A paper of Roger Crisp’s four years ago contained arguments that seemed to imply that having deep personal relationships does not constitute an element of well-being. The lesson to draw from that paper of Crisp’s, according to a recent journal article of mine, is that one’s having a deep personal relationship does constitute an element of one’s well-being on condition that one’s affection for the other person is merited. Crisp’s paper earlier in this issue of Ratio responds to my arguments. Here I reply to new questions that Crisp poses or provokes.

深厚的人际关系、价值、优点和变化

四年前 Roger Crisp 的一篇论文包含的论点似乎暗示拥有深厚的人际关系并不构成幸福的要素。根据我最近的一篇期刊文章，从 Crisp 的那篇论文中得出的教训是，一个人拥有深厚的人际关系确实构成了一个人幸福的一个要素，前提是一个人对另一个人的感情是值得的。本期Ratio早些时候的 Crisp 论文回应了我的论点。在这里，我回复 Crisp 提出或引发的新问题。
