Privacy: an institutional fact
Ethics and Information Technology, 2016Let us show how property is grasped as an institutional fact. If Jones steals a computer, he does not own it in the sense of property, but only exercises control towards it. If he buys the computer, he controls it too, and moreover owns it in the sense of property. In other words, simply exercising control towards something is a brute fact.

Law and Philosophy Library, 1986
Every legal philosopher and jurisprudent is concerned to see law as fact, though only one, Olivecrona, gave that title to a book.

Psychoanalytic Facts as Unintended Institutional Facts
Philosophy of the Social Sciences, 2011We present an inference to the best explanation of the immense cultural success of Freudian psychoanalysis as a hermeneutic method. We argue that an account of psychoanalytic facts as products of unintended declarative speech acts explains this phenomenon.

Institutional Facts and the Naturalistic Fallacy
ProtoSociology, 2002In 1964 Searle argued against the naturalistic fallacy thesis that an ought-statement can in fact be derived from is-statements.

The Production of Institutional Facts in Economic Discourse
World Political Science, 2013AbstractEconomic discourses are dominated by stylized facts and other statements of fact concerning the institutional economic order. Yet, there is still very little knowledge on how exactly facts are formed in economic discourse, how they serve as a means for rendering issues “economic”, and how they legitimize, renew and change institutions.
