Phenomenology of the Social World

Boel Ulff-Møller

Birte Bech-Jørgensen

Hermed foreligger på dansk en nyoversat udgave af tekstudvalget, der første gang kom på dansk i 1957. Udvalget er uddrag fra Alfred Schutz? Collected Papers, udvalgt af sociolog Boel Ulff-Møller. Alfred Schutz (1899-1959) var født i Østrig, men flygtede i 1939 til USA, hvor han frem til sin død var professor ved New School for Social Research. Centralt i hans tænkning var fænomenologiens interesse for menneskenes livsverden, der tages for givet med den såkaldt naturlige indstilling. I mødet med den amerikanske pragmatisme omformulerede han dette filosofiske perspektiv til en sociologi om hverdagslivet, hvori den sociale konstruktion af viden er central.

This book is intended as a celebration of the legacy of Alfred Schutz in honor of the 100th anniversary of the year of his birth in 1999. It represents the contributions of a number of Schutzian scholars from the United States, Europe and Asia who have reflected on the significance of Schutz's work for philosophy and the human sciences for many years. Their work was first presented at international conferences held at Waseda University, Japan, March, 1999, the University of Konstanz, Germany, May 1999, and at the meetings of the Society for Phenomenology and the Human Sciences at the University of Oregon, USA, October, 1999. The editors were organizers of these conferences. These contributions trace connections and continuities with other major theorists and scholars ranging from Max Weber to Talcott Parsons and Pierre Bourdieu; to assessments of his contributions to methodology and social theory; to ethics and the political sphere; to his appeal in fields beyond philosophy, as well as to his wide-ranging explorations of the life-world. Schutz's legacy continues to be found in various places in the human sciences and philosophy and in the intersections of these disciplines. These papers contribute to the on-going dialogue and assessment of Schutz's corpus of work and to fresh appraisals of the continuing relevance of his work.
