Location: S2.77

The next postgraduate Work in Progress (WiP) seminar is taking place this Thursday 30th May from 5-6:15 PM in S2.77 and on Teams. GrĂ¡inne O'Shea will present 'An account of the interdependence of joint and collective intentionality'. Everyone welcome!

 

Abstract:

 

The anti-individualist thesis in philosophy of mind is intended to resolve the problem of knowledge of other minds. It is sometimes also thought that this essential sociality of the mind bears some ethical significance. The literature is divided in its focus on interpersonal ethics and the importance of face-to-face interaction (or 'joint intentionality') on one hand, and impersonal ethics and immersion in cultures, forms of life, and history (or 'collective intentionality') on the other. This paper will argue that collective and joint intentionality should be understood as standing in a mutually determining relation, thereby explaining the interdependence that I suggest exists between impersonal and interpersonal ethics.
