Hermenéutica crítica habermasiana como técnica y método en investigación

Abstract

Studying and understanding social reality is a constant practice, therefore it must be assumed from a multi-paradigmatic, flexible and above all reflexive vision, since it is subject to constant evolution and it is during the 20th century that a new theoretical perspective emerges that deserves to be replicated in various academic fields, such as Critical Theory, which in turn is the basis of Critical Hermeneutics. In order to make an approach to both Theory and Method with special emphasis on Habermas' Critical Hermeneutics, answering the following questions: What is Critical Hermeneutics and what are its theoretical and methodological contributions? This allows us to identify the basic aspects of the Critical Theory of Jürgen Habermas (1981) and the general principles of the proposed method. From the methodological point of view, a descriptive research of documentary type was assumed for the elaboration of this article.
