Studying Communication as Human Action. 330 $aThis book explores the philosophical foundations of communication studies, suggesting that communication phenomena extend beyond the scope of traditional scientific methods. It argues that communication, deeply intertwined with human behavior, cannot be fully comprehended through empirical methods alone. The book presents an epistemological alternative to empiricism in communication studies?an alternative rooted in the praxeological perspective. Drawing from the principles of rationalism, it proposes that conclusions about communication can be deduced from a priori theoretical truths, rather than empirical evidence. This book is a crucial resource for scholars in both philosophy and communication studies. 606 $aCommunication 606 $aInformation theory 606 $aPhilosophy and social sciences 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 606 $aCommunication$xMethodology 606 $aSocial sciences 606 $aMedia and Communication Theory 606 $aPhilosophy of the Social Sciences 606 $aPolitical Philosophy 606 $aMedia and Communication Methods 606 $aSociety 615 0$aCommunication. 615 0$aInformation theory. 615 0$aPhilosophy and social sciences. 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aCommunication$xMethodology. 615 0$aSocial sciences. 615 14$aMedia and Communication Theory. 615 24$aPhilosophy of the Social Sciences. 615 24$aPolitical Philosophy. 615 24$aMedia and Communication Methods. 615 24$aSociety. 676 $a302.201 700 $aSlutskiy$b Pavel$0849302 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910878049403321 996 $aPhilosophical Foundations of Communication Studies$94201715 997 $aUNINA
