Sumario: | My question, in this work, will be: How do human beings create such complex phenomena as money, government, property, and marriage? Here, I will maintain four theses. First, all of human institutional reality is created in its initial form by a certain type of linguistic representation that has the same logical structure as Declarations and as these create Status Functions, I call them Status Function Declarations. Secondly, institutional reality is maintained in its continuing existence by Status Function Declarations. Third, the status functions without exception function to create power. So the purpose of institutional facts is to create power relations. Fourth, the powers in question have a very peculiar status, because they function by creating reasons for action that are independent of the desires or inclinations of the agents in question. All institutional facts are created by Status Function Declarations, and these Status Function Declarations create deontic powers, and Deontic powers, when recognized, give desire independent reasons for action.
