Talcott Parsons on Crises - Dictionary of Arguments
Habermas IV 433 Crises/Society/Parsons/Habermas: Talcott Parson's thesis: Social pathological phenomena are due to systemic imbalances. Habermas IV 434 HabermasVsParsons: Parsons cannot, like Weber, teach standards for the experience of crises by those affected. He uses the term crisis without reference to identity problems. He can grasp crises solely in terms of media dynamics ((s) media are, among other things, money and power.) >Communication Media/Parsons. Economic inflation and deflation problems serve Parsons as a model for this. (1) 1. Parsons, T./Platt, M.
