Introduction

the lebenswelt origins of the sciences

Harold GarfinkelKenneth Liberman

pp. 3-7

Abstract

Ethnomethodology’s initiatives originated with Husserl’s program; however, it has developed its own rival program for investigating the lebenswelt origin of the sciences, a program that is one of ethnomethodology’s central research areas. These lebenswelt origins are also properly a central subject for sociological studies of social order, including peer reviewed social studies of science. Unfortunately, while these “origins” are mentioned and described by Husserl, they witnessably escape Husserl’s formal descriptions of his program and are left to live undisclosed and unmentioned behind the disciplinary particulars of the various sciences.
