Abstract

In the past 30 years, collective intentionality, group agency and social institutions have established themselves as central topics within analytic philosophy. The many wide-ranging and penetrating papers and books that Raimo Tuomela has published on these topics have made a significant contribution to this development. His new book Social Ontology. Collective Intentionality and Group Agents (Oxford University Press) is a welcome addition. Tuomela formulates his ideas in a more accessible way than before, which makes the book attractive also to philosophers and social scientists that are new to his work.
