66Being one of us. Group identification, joint actions, and collective intentionalityPhilosophical Psychology 33 (1): 42-63. 2020.1. Philosophical arguments (Schweikard & Schmid, 2013) and empirical evidence (Tomasello, Carpenter, Call, Behne, & Moll, 2005) support the idea that the capacity to engage in joint actions is a ke...

66There are No Primitive We-IntentionsReview of Philosophy and Psychology 6 (4): 695-715. 2015.John Searle’s account of collective intentions in action appears to have all the theoretical pros of the non-reductivist view on collective intentionality without the metaphysical cons of committing to the existence of group minds. According to Searle, when we collectively intend to do something together, we intend to cooperate in order to reach a collective goal. Intentions in the first-person plural form therefore have a particular psychological form or mode, for the we-intender conceives of h…Read more

49Husserl on shared intentionality and normativityContinental Philosophy Review 56 (3): 343-359. 2023.The paper offers a systematic reconstruction of the relations that, in Husserl’s work, bind together our shared social world (“the spiritual world”) with shared intentionality. It is claimed that, by sharing experiences, persons create social reasons and that these reasons impose a normative structure on the social world. Because there are two ways in which persons can share experiences (depending on whether these experiences rest on mutual communication or on group’s identity), social normativi…Read more

40Actions, Values, and States of Affairs in Hildebrand and ReinachStudia Phaenomenologica 15 259-280. 2015.The present article discusses Dietrich von Hildebrand’s theory of action as presented in his Die Idee der sittlichen Handlung, and focuses on the moral relevance Hildebrand assigns to diff erent kinds of motivations. The act of will which leads to a moral action, Hildebrand claims, can be “founded” or “motivated” in different ways and, in particular, it can be motivated by an act of cognizing or by an act of value-taking. The act of cognizing grasps the state of aff airs that the action strives …Read more

7Obbligazione e pretesa in Adolf Reinach: due relazioni socialiRivista di Estetica 39 225-240. 2008.Nel 1913 Adolf Reinach pubblica I Fondamenti A Priori del Diritto Civile, opera che rappresenta senza dubbio il capolavoro del giovane fenomenologo tedesco. Il saggio si staglia sul denso sfondo di questioni semantiche, ontologiche e psicologico-descrittive dibattute a cavallo tra Otto e Novecento nei circoli fenomenologici di Monaco e Gottinga. Tali questioni, che rappresentano il vero e proprio terreno fertile dell’opera, nei Fondamenti non diventano però tema esplicito dell’indagine. Quest...

74Consciousness, belief, and the group mind hypothesisSynthese 198 (2): 1-25. 2019.According to the Group Mind Hypothesis, a group can have beliefs over and above the beliefs of the individual members of the group. Some maintain that there can be group mentality of this kind in the absence of any group-level phenomenal consciousness. We present a challenge to the latter view. First, we argue that a state is not a belief unless the owner of the state is disposed to access the state’s content in a corresponding conscious judgment. Thus, if there is no such thing as group conscio…Read more

3Ontologia degli oggetti culturaliRivista di Estetica 36 (36): 181-198. 2007.1 La relatività a una cultura Negli ultimi anni si parla pressoché quotidianamente di “differenze” o “caratteristiche” culturali. Queste espressioni vengono spesso impiegate in contesti prefilosofici senza una chiara esplicazione del loro riferimento. Uno sguardo più attento può tuttavia rilevare che il semplice aggettivo “culturale” prescrive delle condizioni di verità aggiuntive alle proposizioni che lo contengono. Così, ad esempio:(1) la simmetria è un criterio culturale di bellezza classi...

10Giudizio ed esistenza: Schröder, Husserl e Meinong. Introduzione al carteggio tra Meinong e HusserlRivista di Estetica 40 149-167. 2009.1. Un incontro mancato I legami tra Edmund Husserl e Alexius Meinong, e più in generale tra fenomenologia tedesca e teoria degli oggetti, narrano una storia per certi versi paradossale, che vede i due brillanti allievi e caustici critici di Franz Brentano percorrere per un lungo periodo di tempo binari di pensiero non lontani gli uni dagli altri, in certi momenti persino paralleli, per poi divergere proprio nel momento in cui le loro conclusioni andavano consolidandosi, aprendo la strada a un...

46Practical intentionality: from Brentano to the phenomenology of the Munich and Göttingen CirclesIn Dan Zahavi (ed.), Oxford Handbook of the History of Phenomenology, Oxford University Press. pp. 604-622. 2018.The aim of this chapter is to mine, reconstruct, and evaluate the phenomenological notion of practical intentionality. It is claimed that the phenomenologists of the Munich and Göttingen Circles substantially modify the idea of practical intentionality originally developed by Franz Brentano. This development, it is further contended, anticipates the switch that occurred within contemporary theory of action from a belief-desire to a belief-desire-intention model of deliberation. While Brentanoâ s…Read more

565Towards a wide approach to improvisationIn J. McGuirk, S. Ravn & S. Høffding (eds.), Improvisation: The Competence(s) of Not Being in Control, Routledge. 2021.This paper pursues two main aims. First, it distinguishes two kinds of improvisation: expert and inexpert. Expert improvisation is a (usually artistic) practice that the agent consciously sets as their goal and is evaluated according to (usually artistic) standards of improvisation. Inexpert improvisation, by contrast, supports and structures the agent’s action as it moves them towards their (usually everyday life) goals and is evaluated on its success leading the agent to the achievement of tho…Read more
