“Convention: A Philosophical Study”

"Convention: A Philosophical Study" explores how social agreements shape our understanding of language, meaning, and societal norms. It examines how conventions—commonly accepted practices or rules—are fundamental in human interactions, influencing everything from communication to moral choices. The study looks at the role of these conventions in creating shared understanding and order, while also questioning their flexibility and justification. By analyzing how conventions arise and evolve, the work offers insights into the nature of human behavior and the foundations of knowledge, highlighting the interplay between individual actions and collective agreements.
