FRAIMAN, Juan Alberto. The relevance of the Work in the Theory of communicative action by Jürgen Habermas. Trab. soc. [online]. 2019, n.33, pp.41-60. ISSN 1514-6871.

This article deals with the relevance of the work in the theory of communicative action of the German thinker Jürgen Habermas. Our treatment is part of the general debate on the issue of whether the "work" is a central theoretical category or relevant in contemporary social theory. From a number of references on the typology of social action and a conception of society in two planes, such as system and life world, arrive at a dual notion of work to be recognized as the backbone of the theory of communicative action. Therefore, work, will occupy a central place in a theory of society that tries to overcome the assumptions of a philosophy of consciousness and there take a linguistic and intersubjective basis. Ultimately, recovering a dual notion of work, will express the tensions, conflicts and even paradoxical relationships that are inscribed in the core of Habermasian social theory.

Palavras-chave : work; communicative action; intersubjectivity; critical theory.
