Alongside the CCR there are a number of groups which promote critical realism and run regular events.
Centre for Social Ontology (UK)
The Centre for Social Ontology (CSO) is funded by the Independent Social Research Foundation. We were established in 2011 at the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne. Now based in the Department of Sociology at the University of Warwick, our main focus is the Morphogenetic Project.
- The Morphogenetic Project produces an annual volume as part of the Social Morphogenesis series.
- The first three volumes in this series are Social Morphogenesis, Late Modernity: Trajectories Towards Morphogenic Society and Generative Mechanisms Transforming the Social Order.
- We ran a seminar series between October 2014 and March 2015.
- We organise conferences and workshops on a regular basis.
