Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2000 16:06:59 -0400 Twas written: >>If anyone has a reference to a discussion by or about Habermas which sets out the distinction between a scientific or technical discourse (e.g. "what's the best way to build a bridge" or "how should we define the meter") as opposed to the discourses that one usually envisions taking place in the public sphere, I would be most grateful. For a chilling critique of Habermas's use of psychoanalysis and Habermas's "self-understanding" of methodology: see Adolf Grunbaum, The Foundations of Psychoanalysis (first 40 pages or so). ken --- from list habermas-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
