The Dual Vision - Alfred Schutz and the Myth of Phenomenological Social Science (Paperback): Robert Gorman The Dual Vision - Alfred Schutz and the Myth of Phenomenological Social Science (Paperback)
Robert Gorman
R1,497 Discovery Miles 14 970 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This study, originally published in 1977, focuses on a critical examination of the life-work of Alfred Schutz, the most important and influential 'father' of several recent schools of empirical social research. The author shows why Shutz and his followers fail in their attempts to 'humanize' empirical social science. The problems they encounter, he argues, are due to their attempt to achieve a methodological synthesis of self-determining subjectivity and empirical criteria of validation, based on Schutz's heuristic adoption of relevant ideas from Weber and Husserl. This is, in effect, an artificial union of subjectivity and objectivity - their 'dual vision' - that satisfies neither phenomenological nor naturalist perspectives. Dr Gorman suggests that the radical implications of phenomenology must lead to a consistent, socially-conscious method of inquiry, and, in a final chapter, he re-defines the methodological implications of phenomenology with the aid of existential and Marxist categories.
