In this book, Kaufmann develops a general theory of knowledge of the social sciences in his role as a cross-border commuter between Husserl's phenomenology, Kelsen's pure theory of law and the logical positivism of the Vienna Circle. This multilayered inquiry connects the value-oriented reflections of a general philosophy of science with the specificity of the methods and theories of the social sciences, as opposed to abstract natural science and psychology. The core focus of the study is the attempt to elucidate how and under what conditions scientific knowledge about social facts, empirically justified and theoretically embedded, can be obtained. The empirical basis of knowledge within the social sciences forms a phenomenological concept of experience. According to Kaufmann, this concept of experience exhibits a complex structure. Within the meaning-interpretation of human action as the core of knowledge in the social sciences, this structure reaches out across the isolated act of verification toward the synthesis of external and internal experiences. The book opens with a detailed and useful introduction by Ingeborg K. Helling, which introduces the historical and theoretical background of Kaufmann's study and specifically illuminates his relation to Alfred Schütz and John Dewey. Finally, it contains interviews with and letters to members of his family, colleagues and students. 410 0$aBoston Studies in the Philosophy and History of Science,$x0068-0346 ;$v303 606 $aPhilosophy and science 606 $aPhilosophy and social sciences 606 $aPhilosophy of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34000 606 $aPhilosophy of the Social Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E36000 615 0$aPhilosophy and science. 615 0$aPhilosophy and social sciences. 615 14$aPhilosophy of Science. 615 24$aPhilosophy of the Social Sciences. 676 $a301.018 702 $aCohen$b Robert S$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHelling$b Ingeborg K$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483552903321 996 $aFelix Kaufmann's Theory and Method in the Social Sciences$92855304 997 $aUNINA
