Abstract

After a review of Schutz's writing, as well as his experiencing and reading about matters political, the comments found scattered throughout the oeuvre are interpreted under the headings of "disciplinary definition," "basic concepts," and "distinctive methods" in order to show how political science could have been be developed as part of his philosophical theory of the cultural sciences. A review of some of Schutz's influence in political science is appended.
