More about the book

The book explores the concept of action as intentional behavior shaped by information processing, linking it to a formal and finalistic theory of institutions. It critiques traditional deontic logic, advocating for a genuine logic of norms, and examines the philosophical foundations of practical thinking, including formal teleology and axiology. The author provides a structural analysis of practical inference and nomic causal propositions, while also critically engaging with the philosophies of von Wright, Habermas, Apel, Alexy, and Wittgenstein.
