Abstract

The article presents a characteristic of phenomenological sociology in its relation to the constructivist paradigm in epistemology and the human sciences. The main attention is paid to A. Schutz’s theory and P. Berger and T. Lukman’s social constructivism. The influence of M. Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenological philosophy on K. Gergen’s social psychology is demonstrated. The thesis is substantiated, according to which social problems are the immanent result of the development of phenomenological philosophy. It also shows that the critique of classical metaphysics undertaken within the framework of phenomenology makes possible a new substantiation of the specifics of social and philosophical knowledge in general.
