A problem in Schutz's theory of the historical sciences with an illustration from the women's liberation movement

Lester Embree

pp. 281-306

In the first part of this essay it is contended that Schutz's project is best called the philosophical theory of the cultural sciences; in the last parts it is shown that he offers satisfactory rudiments of a theory of the historical sciences except where the differentia specifica of those sciences is concerned. The central part is devoted to women's liberation as a case of "contemporary history" in relation to which Schutz's thought about the historical sciences needs correction.
