Realism in Action is a selection of essays written by leading
representatives in the fields of action theory and philosophy of
mind, philosophy of the social sciences and especially the nature
of social action, and of epistemology and philosophy of science.
Practical reason, reasons and causes in action theory, intending
and trying, and folk-psychological explanation are some of the
topics discussed by these leading participants. A particular
emphasis is laid on trust, commitments and social institutions, on
the possibility of grounding social notions in individual social
attitudes, on the nature of social groups, institutions and
collective intentionality, and on common belief and common
knowledge. Applications to the social sciences include, e.g., a
look at the Erklaren-Verstehen controversy in economics, and at
constructivist and realist views on archeological reconstructions
of the past."
