The institutional dimension of speech acts: a logical approach based on the concept of acceptance

Year: 2008

Type: report

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to provide an analysis of speech acts as institutional actions, where an institution is grounded on the attitudes of its members. In the first part of the paper we present a logic of acceptance, goal and action. Then, we specify how agents can create and maintain normative and institutional facts on the basis of their acceptances qua members of a certain institution. Finally, we propose a formal characterization of the speech act promise.
