Are companies, churches, and states genuine agents? Or are they just collections
of individuals that give a misleading impression of unity? This question is important,
since the answer dictates how we should explain the behaviour of these entities
and whether we should treat them as responsible and accountable on the model
of individual agents. Group Agency offers a new approach to that question and is
relevant, therefore, to a range of fields from philosophy to law, politics, and the
social sciences. Christian List and Philip Pettit argue that there really are group or
corporate agents, over and above the individual agents who compose them, and
that a proper approach to the social sciences, iaw, morality, and politics must take
account of this fact. Unlike some earlier defences of group agency, their account
is entirely unmysterious in character and, despite not being technically difficult, is
grounded in cutting-edge work in social choice theory, economics, and philosophy.
