The Durable Dimensions of Social Institutions. A Generative Phenomenological Approach

Abstract

This chapter follows in the footsteps of a generative phenomenology in the work of Alfred Schutz. It asserts that the generative framework is best suited to approach the matter of social institutions and that Schutzian generative formulation of intersubjectivity allows the unraveling of different layers of phenomenality that the specialized discussion considers to be macro-social.
