Ali,

I don't take Bernstein's comments as TOO radical an interpretation of 
Habermas's position. He is probably working with a fairly broad 
understanding of *communicative action*; more a generalized, lifeworldly one 
rather than a specific situated event-type conception.

In _PMT_ (I think...) Habermas's discussion of Mead focuses on the issue of 
individualization via socialization and I think this is the type of Habermas 
which Bernstein is referring to.

best regards,

MattP
