Contesting John Searle's social ontology

institutions and background

Joseph Margolis

pp. 98-115

Abstract

For me, having my ideas examined, assessed, and attacked is an essential part of doing philosophy. Among my precepts are these: if you can’t say it clearly you don’t understand it yourself, and if you can’t defend it successfully in public debates you shouldn’t publish it. (2010, p. xiii)
