He advocates the benefits of the individual planning theory of agency in explaining both normative and conceptual aspects of cooperative behavior. While refusing to rely on metaphysical structures of collective intentionality, such as Searle’s We-intentions, the planning theory of agency focuses primarily on the psychological continuity between individual and social norms of rationality and planning. This article tries to assess the merits of Bratman’s proposal also by taking into account some competing views such as those of Searle and Gilbert.

It starts out with a reconstruction of the “transformation” of solidarity across different types of practical discourse, and move on to argue that according to Habermas solidarity is the result of juridical institutionalization of democratic procedures. Next, it looks at what this concept of “civic solidarity” does for the way we should understand social ethos, morality and law in the context of a public sphere committed to maximum inclusion. It concludes that solidarity should be seen as a rational import of practical discourse.

After discussing the limits of the so called belief-desire model in representing the agent’s standpoint, the paper focuses on how planning states can sustain an alternative view based on self-governing strategies allegedly capable of supporting a distinctive sense of personal continuity over time. It ends up with the discussion of some related concerns pertaining to metaphysics and diachronic rationality, in
particular the apparent tension between synchronic and diachronic rational pressure over planning deliberation.
