Niklas Luhmann on Method - Dictionary of Arguments
AU Cas 11 Observation/system/separation/method/Luhmann: an observer can observe operations and define it as a unit, which run psychologically and socially at the same time. However, it is methodologically strange: he can identify how it appears to him naturally. - It would simply be unnatural to separate the systems. Which seems to be a contradiction to the entire system theory. >System/Luhmann, >System theory, >Observation/operation/Luhmann. Solution/Luhmann: clarify what is actually an observer. Solution: there is someone who chooses theories. With that the observer occurs in his own theory again. - This is a cycle or somersault. Cf. >Circular reasoning. Question: Is it the everyday world or the science which determines the theory choice? Durkheim: Social Emergence: you can explain social facts only by social facts._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
