 Within contractualism, the idea of a universal moral relationship unifies the impersonal judgement that someone has failed to act on principles that no-one could reasonably reject with the personal reactions that characterise blame. Suppose I witness your bag being stolen. We both judge that you have been wronged. These judgements rest on “the general claim that it is impermissible for one person to relate to another in the way she has in the type of situation we find ourselves in.” (Kumar 2015, p. 260) But when you blame the perpetrator, you do something much more personal, by also raising “an objection to her attitudes toward you in particular, and what they say about your relationship.” (Kumar 2015, p. 260)
