How does the world exist?

One way of understanding the world is to divide it into regions. Doing so, philosophy produces regional ontologies capable of describing how individual portions of the world exist. Among these portions of reality, the social world is of particular relevance. Involving all of us as social living beings, society raises several philosophical questions: How do social groups exist? What social or ethical-legal ties exist between individuals? Which human features are indispensable for the determination of social policies and possible paradigm shifts? These are just some of the questions that can be asked to conceptualize the ways in which the world, in general, and the social world, in particular, exists.
