On the origin of "phenomenological" sociology
pp. 57-83
in: Kurt Wolff (ed), Alfred Schütz, Berlin, Springer, 1984Abstract
My paper is not intended to be just another one of the innumerable contributions to the exegesis of texts by classical authors of a phenomenological approach to sociology. In my concern here with the origin of "phenomenological' sociology, I would primarily like to outline the unique socio-historical configurations of ideas in which the basis for an interrelationship between sociological and phenomenological thought was already established, before even Alfred Schutz put his pen to paper.
