Review of "Institutions, Emotions, and Group Agents" (original) (raw)

The volume 'Institutions, Emotions, and Group Agents' examines contemporary social ontology through an interdisciplinary lens, addressing themes such as intentionality, social facts, collective emotions, and group agency. Contributions challenge established theories, particularly John Searle's account of social construction, while exploring the complexities of shared emotions and responsibilities among individuals within groups. The discussions provoke further inquiry into the nature of collective responsibility, ultimately questioning whether groups can be recognized as autonomous rational agents.
