Phenomenology of the institution, between philosophy and the humanities
Life, time and the common
Keywords:
institution, phenomenology, life, time, commonAbstract
This article seeks to develop two parallel hypotheses: on the one hand, it affirms the idea that it is not possible to understand the phenomenological notion of institution in the absence of an understanding of its relation to French social thought; on the other, it sustains the idea that it is possible to redirect current discussions in the human sciences –that currently center strongly on the category of institution– towards a rigorous methodological and theoretical framework by elaborating them from the perspective of a phenomenology of the institution. To justify these two hypotheses, we intend, first, to show how the Merleau-Pontian notion of institution feeds on the problems and tentative solutions offered by French social thought while, second, providing a new theoretical framework and productive perspectives.
