John Searle and the Construction of Social Reality (Continuum Studies in American Philosophy, 11),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In 1995's The Construction of Social Reality, influential philosopher John Searle argued that the social reality of the world, from the value of money to the purposes of institutions, is constituted by the collective imposition of function on brute fact, expressing this view in the formula X (brute fact) counts as Y (institutional fact) in C (context). In this manner he sought to build a theory of institutional facts upon a base of uncontentious brute facts. In this volume, Rust (philosophy, U. of California at Riverside) takes up the debates sparked by The Construction of Social Reality. He argues that seeing Searle's work as an advancement of an ideal type (in the Weberian sense) allows Searle to avoid criticisms that his formula is no more than a form of institutional atomism. However, as an ideal type, Searle's constitutive formula both highlights and suppresses aspects of institutional reality and thus can only serve as one instrument for attending inquiry among other ideal types, such as the Aristotelian conception of the phronimos.
