Details

Elizabeth Anscombe is one of the most important figures in the contemporary philosophy of action. Yet her account of intentions and intentional actions is still largely absent in the now flourishing debates on social agency and collective intentionality.

With Chicago’s renowned expertise in Anscombe scholarship, and Vienna as the founding city of the International Society of Social Ontology, the aim of this workshop is to be part of the conversation that could finally fill this lacuna.
