GROS, Alexis Emanuel. El debate de Alfred Schütz con Max Scheler en torno a la empatía. Tópicos [online]. 2012, n.24, pp.00-00. ISSN 1666-485X.

At the beginning of the 20th century the issue of empathy was subject of controversy within the phenomenological movement. The present paper deals with the debate on that topic that the young Alfred Schutz maintained with Max Scheler. Firstly, I outline the Schelerian theory of Fremdwahrnehmung (perception of the other), and secondly I present Schutz's criticism of the former, which is inspired by Husserl's insights on self-awareness and Einfühlung (empathy). My thesis is that in order to properly understand Schutz's theory of Fremdverstehen (understanding of the other) it is essential to take into account this early confrontation with Scheler.

Palabras clave : Empathy; Phenomenology; Intersubjectivity; Alfred Schutz; Max Scheler.
