Event Description:

Humans live immersed in a nomosphere, in a complex world of norms that condition their way of thinking and behaviour. Sometimes, people are aware of these rules, as is the case with certain legal norms and certain moral norms that are also explicitly formulated and used in a criminal process or in moral judgments. However, humans are also conditioned by norms they are not themselves aware of and by axiological elements inscribed in their practices.

A recent conceptual tool for investigating this hidden normativity that lies in the background of human actions and thoughts is the idea of "mindshaping." If mindreading is the ability to read the mental states of others, "mindshaping" is the ability to shape each other's minds, which also transforms into the ability to shape each other's behaviours.

This “NormaCtivity Online Workshop” aims to investigate the normative atmosphere in which humans live in light of the concept of "mindshaping," to study the relationship between mindshaping and the cultural and normative background of human actions and to analyse the regulatory function of mindshaping. The workshop will bring together leading philosophers working on hidden forms of normativity and regulation, mindshaping and social and normative cognition.
