Finnish philosopher who developed the we-mode theory of collective intentionality — a systematic account of how individuals can think and act as group members versus as private persons.
We-mode versus I-mode: group members acting in we-mode subordinate their individual perspective to the group's — they think 'we intend' rather than 'I intend.' The Social Ontology: groups can have genuine collective attitudes irreducible to individual attitudes. A systematic alternative to Margaret Gilbert's joint commitment approach.
