【 摘 要 】

This text is a plea for a realist, rather than nominalist, conception of deliberating bodies. A deliberating body cannot be understood as simply a changing collection of individuals. Deliberating bodies are real collective entities in that defining criteria can be specified for them, including a boundary between what is internal and external to them and the fact that those two domains are connected by functions or purposes. This in turn means that these entities are adaptive systems. There are three types of adaptive systems: technical systems, organisms and human organizations. The specificity of human organizations—of which deliberating bodies are a particular type—resides in the nature of relations between the parties composing them, which is normative, and the ways in which the organization’s purposes are determined. The specificity of deliberating bodies is that they exist “adverbially,” meaning that that existence is subordinate to the specific activity of their members and the way in which those persons relate to its instituted, yet changing, purposes.
