Varieties of Shared Intentionality

Everyone welcome, but places are limited.

Description
Human beings are social beings that can think and act both as individuals
and also jointly as members of larger social groups.  We find shared
intentionality whenever an individual experiences, thinks or acts jointly
with other members of a group.  What does it mean for two or more
individuals to jointly possess an intentional state such as an evaluative
attitude or an intention?  What types of social cognitive capacities does
shared intentionality depend upon?  What is the relationship between
intersubjective, plural modes of experience and first-person singular modes
of experience?  What is the role of shared intentionality in the development
of normativity?   This interdisciplinary workshop brings together
psychologists and philosophers to investigate these and other questions
concerning the nature of shared intentionality.

The workshop is a networking meeting that brings together researchers from
the European Science Foundation, Eurocores Project Understanding and
Misunderstanding: Cognition, Culture and Communication.  We are very
grateful to the ESF for generous financial support, and to the Institute of
Philosophy, London for organisational support and for agreeing to host this
meeting.
