Making the Social World: The Structure of Human Civilization

摘要

[...] he tweaks his account in light of misunderstandings and insights of commentators, expanding his theory to cover status functions originating where there is not yet a constitutive rule, nonintentionality-relative systematic fallouts of institutions (for example, the business cycle), and free-standing status functions without direct physical identities (such as equity). [...] the book contains new developments on power and rights that will be welcome to those interested in how Searle's theory plays out at higher levels.
