%0 Journal Article %A Muñoz Corcuera, Alfonso %T Persistence narrativism and the determinacy of personal identity %D 2020 %@ 0048-3893 %U https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/114868 %X We have a strong intuition that personal identity is a determinate relationship. Parfit famously challenged this intuition. In this paper I explain how narrative identity theories can face that challenge and defend that personal identity is determinate thanks to what I call the social narrativity thesis. This move will raise some concerns regarding the also strong intuition that personal identity is what matters when we care about our future existence. I address this concern to show that narrative identity theories can account for both intuitions at the same time. %~
