Collective Intentionality, Methodological Solipsism, and Current Neurosciences.
2008
L’intervento analizza la teoria searleana dell’intenzionalità collettiva e la sua pretesa di superamento della dicotomia tra approcci individualisti (riduzionisti) e collettivisti all’intenzionalità collettiva considerandone la plausibilità alla luce della recente scoperta dei mirror neurons (interpretata alla luce delle teorie di Gallese e Rizzolatti) e della più generale concezione della mente come sistema autonomo modulato dall’ambiente quale emerge dalle teorie di Edelman e Llinàs.

Intenzionalità collettiva, ontologia sociale e mindreading
2014
In his Collective Intentions and Actions John Searle argued that having a preintentional sense of others as at least potentially cooperative agents “like me” is a necessary condition of collective intentionality. He also argued, in Rationality in Action, that understanding others qua intentional agents necessarily presupposes rationality because rational constraints are built into the logical structure of intentional phenomena. In this paper we will try to specify further these claims in the light of current debate on mindreading, where other-understanding is spelled out either in terms of automatic, subpersonal simulative mechanisms, or in terms of normative, rational principles. We will a…
Riflessioni e traiettorie di ricerca interdisciplinari sulla transizione digitale
2022
The contribution introduces the topic covered by vol. 12 of AGATHÓN through essays, studies, research and projects on Innovability©® | Digital Transition to investigate the current widespread transformation that unites dichotomies (analogue and digital), enhances oxymorons (artificial intelligence), creates paradoxes (materiality of the intangible), while indiscriminately involving architecture, humanities and social sciences, anthropology, sociology, ecology, biology, physical-mathematical sciences and neurosciences, with impacts that – while already visible today and accelerated in part by the extraordinary global health emergency – will become even more evident in the medium and long ter…

Perception, Normativity and Action in Contemporary Philosophy of Mind and Cognitive Science
Working on the background of a view of mind as “in action”, as pragmatically shaped by its own dynamic interactions with the world, emerging from the achievements of contemporary philosophy of mind (from Searle to enactivism)and cognitive science (from Gibson to Goodale and Milner)I aim to propose a view of perception as a form of human activity of which we are responsible, and in which our “commitment” to truth and rationality can take place. Against some recent phenomenalist and antirepresentationalist views of perception I'll try to show that the action-oriented character of perception does not challenge its rational constraint to a right representation of the state of affairs which it i…
Recensione a John R. Searle, La mente, Raffaello Cortina Editore, Milano, 2005
2005
La recensione mette in rilievo la fecondità teorica della filosofia della mente di Searle, per la prima volta presentata in questo volume come teoria unitaria del mentale capace di far fronte efficacemente, in una prospettiva naturalista ed antiriduzionista capace di superare il tradizionale dilemma tra monismo e dualismo, ai principali problemi sul tappeto del dibattito contemporaneo, dal problema della coscienza a quelli dell'intenzionalità, della causalità mentale e del libero arbitrio.
Normativity and collective recognition in Searle's account of language and social ontology
2015
Prendendo le mosse dalla tesi di John Searle che le istituzioni sono create e mantenute grazie al riconoscimento collettivo di funzioni di status secondo la forma logica “X conta come Y in C”, analizzO il ruolo cruciale delle regole costitutive nel percorso teorico searleano da Speech Acts a Making the Social World. Rendendo esplicito il parallelismo tra le regole costitutive che sottendono la realtà istituzionale e quelleche governano gli atti linguistici, miro a derivare da esse i criteri normativi per la valutazione razionale sia degli atti linguistici sia degli atti istituzionali. Mostro come tali criteri consentano di distinguere tra riconoscimento collettivo razionalmente motivato e r…
Potere disciplinare e norme incorporate
2020
The problem I discuss is whether the behaviors which are the product of the exercise of disciplinary power may be characterized as “normative”, and if so in what sense of the word “normative”. Disciplinary power is, I will say, the “inscription of norms” in the body of those who are subject to it. I distinguish two ways (“indirect” and “direct” inscription) in which norms may be inscribed, through the exercise of disciplinary power, in the body of the subjects, which I dub, respectively, “automatic execution (of norms)” and “normative automatisms”. Automatic execution of norms is a well-known phenomenon. Normative automatisms are odd entities: in the case of normative automatisms, the norm …
