RATIONALITY AND INTERSUBJECTIVITY: AN EPISTEMOLOGICAL CHALLENGE FOR SOCIOLOGY AND PHILOSOPHY

Summary/Abstract: The main question in reflections on the conditions of the adequacy of social cognition, which I understand here as metasociological reflection, concerns the nature of the relation between the object of sociology and the cognitive tools that serve to explore it - which only at first glance is a purely philosophical question (purely epistemological or purely methodological). For traditional philosophy is unable to provide sociology with an answer to this question - though it can show where this answer should not be sought, namely, in past philosophy.
