What is Schutzian Phenomenology? Outlining the Program of Social Phenomenology

Summary/Abstract: My aim is to depict Schutzian phenomenology as a whole. In order to do so, I will start by presenting Schutz’s ideas on the phenomenological, egological, and eidetic reductions as mere technical devices. Th en I will show how they are interconnected with phenomenological psychology. After that, I will argue that phenomenological psychology leads to worldly phenomenology and I will explore its consequences for transcendental philosophy and the empirical sciences. I will conclude with some refl ections on naturalized phenomenology and how it finds absolute certainty in the life-world, not in the transcendental realm.
