My paper aims to elucidate a specific form of collective metacognition characterized by the practice of recognizing and criticizing "our way" of forming collective judgments. I combine theories of collective agency that emphasize the important role of collective judgment formation (List & Pettit 2011)with theories of metacognition and mindshaping that emphasize social and regulatory aspects (Zawidzki 2013; McGeer 1996) to develop a concept of the collective practice of self-understanding and self-criticism of the formal and ideological presuppositions of "our" way of thinking. Finally, I want to show how this collective metacognitive capacity is an essential feature of a specific form of collective agency that can be distinguished from "lower" forms of collective agency.
