Cooperation is the fundamental feature
of intelligent beings. It makes them able
to evolve complex social behaviors and
to better resolve practical issues. Humans
have evolved a very powerful form of
cooperation, which is spread anywhere
in the everyday life: norms, institutions,
states, hierarchies, ordinary relationships,
etc., are deeply determined by the
original notion of cooperation. This book
addresses the conditions of the human
cooperative activities in order to focus on
their common roots and to bring them
back to an unitary origin. It is profoundly
animated by the task of understanding
how cooperative skills are able to evolve
the plurality of the cooperative activities
from the spontaneous to the institutional
ones and to find a common denominator
for joint actions. It also explores the
social-political aspects related to joint
activities and deals with the notion of
intersubjective freedom.
