Language and Intersubjectivity: From the Phenomenology of Spirit to Habermas’ Diskursethik
Abstract: In this paper I aim to trace an itinerary through Hegelian Phenomenology to Jürgen Habermas’ Diskurethik. Hegel lays the groundwork for placing relationality at the origin of self-consciousness and addresses the problem of plurality of perspectives on the world, seeking a solution in the linguistic medium. Habermas draws on Hegel’s thought, identifying a structural ethicality underlying our communication.
Keywords: Language; Intersubjectivity; Diskursethik; Hegel; Habermas.
