Resumo: The essay reviews how phenomenological psychology can draw on Edmund Husserl’s transcendental phenomenology in order to clarify the foundations of the cultural sciences and then explicates the theory of this psychology implicit in Schutz’s oeuvre. Max Weber has shown that all phenomena of the socio-cultural world originate in social interaction and can be referred to it. According to him, it is the central task of sociology to understand the meaning which the actor bestows on his action (the “subjective meaning” in his terminology). But what is action, what is meaning, and how is the understanding of such meaning by a fellow-man possible, be he a partner of the social interaction, or merely an observer in everyday life, or a social scientist? I submit that any attempt to answer these questions leads immediately to questions with which Husserl was concerned and which he has to a certain extent solved.

Max Weber demonstrou que todos os fenômenos do mundo sociocultural originam-se na interação social e estão submetidos a ela. Segundo ele, é papel central da sociologia entender o significado que o ator confere a sua ação (o “significado subjetivo”, em sua terminologia). Mas o que é ação, o que é significado, e como é possível a compreensão de tal significado, seja por um participante da interação social, um simples observador da vida cotidiana ou um cientista social? Eu diria que qualquer tentativa de responder a estas perguntas leva imediatamente a questões com as quais Husserl mantinha interesse e que, até certo ponto, ele pode esclarecer (Schutz, 1962, p. 145).Editora da Pucrs - ediPUCRS2011-11-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/index.php/civitas/article/view/1005810.15448/1984-7289.2011.3.10058Civitas: journal of Social Sciences; Vol. 11 No. 3 (2011): Subjectivity and life-world; 409-418Civitas: revista de Ciências Sociais; Vol. 11 Núm. 3 (2011): Subjetividade e mundo da vida; 409-418Civitas: revista de Ciências Sociais; v. 11 n. 3 (2011): Subjetividade e mundo da vida; 409-4181984-72891519-608910.15448/1984-7289.2011.3reponame:Civitas - Revista de Ciências Sociais (Porto Alegre.
