| Tiivistelmä: | The paper presents an account of social institutions on the basis of collective acceptance. Basically, collective acceptance by some members of a group involves the members' collectively coming to hold and holding a relevant social attitude (a "we-attitude"), viz. either one the intention family of concepts or one in the belief family. In standard cases the collective acceptance must be in the "we-mode," viz. performed as a group member, and involve that it be meant for the group. The participants must be collectively committed to what they have accepted. Social institutions are taken to be norm- governed social practices introducing a new social and conceptual status on the practices or some elements involved in those practices. |
