On the Logic of the Social Sciences

This influential work presents Habermas' views on the nature of the social sciences and their distinctive methodology and concerns. He examines the traditional division between natural and social sciences, the characteristics of social action, and the implications of theories of language for social enquiry.

Habermas' analysis is rigorous, perceptive, and constructive, highlighting the distinctive characteristics of the social sciences and outlining the nature of critical theory today.
