CREATURA COLLETTIVA. NOTE SUL CONCETTO DI COGNIZIONE DISTRIBUITA

In this paper, I will examine some aspects of a research program called “Distributed Cognition”. My goal is twofold: a) to clarify the many meanings of the word “distribution” in the context of cognitive science; b) to analyze the relationship between “Distributed co- gnition”andthreedistincttopicsi.e:1)“ComputationalTheoryofMind”;2)“SocialCognition”;3)“PersonalMind”.Inthe conclusions,I will try to fomulate some questions that remain open in the debate on Distributed Cognition.
