Abstract

With his concept of an Interpretative Sociology, the sociologist and philosopher Alfred Schütz strives for a basic analysis of our lifeworld proceeding on the assumption that this world of means does not represent an objective reality, but always a reality already interpreted and intersubjectively valid. Therefore, we do not simply live in one persistent universe, but in multiple realities, and every single uni verse is·characterized by its own epistemological style. The following artide devotes to a presentation of the essential characteristics of Schütz' theory focussing on the actuality of his concept by indicating opportunities to turn this basic matrix of social world into a foundation for empírica! studies in the field of communication today.
