Every year, the Social Ontology and Collective Intentionality conferences provide the unique opportunity to discuss new work in this exciting and growing area of philosophy. This year, the COVID-19 pandemic makes it impossible for us to have the conference in person. We were looking forward to seeing you all in San Diego, and are disappointed that we cannot be with you here. Though a virtual conference cannot serve fully as a substitute for an in-person experience, we hope you’ll find Social Ontology 2021 a productive and engaging forum.
