I give a rough outline of Brandom’s scorekeeping account of conceptual content. The account is meant to be phenomenalist, normativist, expressively complete and non-circular; the question is how and to what extent it succeeds in meeting these goals.

Keywords: reductionism, conceptual content, deontic statuses, doxastic commitment, institution, normativism, objectivity, perspectivity, phenomenalism
