Abstract. The article “Lifeworld and Mathematics ” has been inspired by well-known scientists, from whom are listed here: Edmund Husserl, Jürgen Habermas, Reuben Hersh, Martin Heidegger, Hartmut von Hentig and Knut Radbruch.

Hersh has a pragmatic understanding of mathematics so that he views mathematics as a social, cultural, historical reality. Heidegger saw the basic character of the modern knowledge attitude in the new knowledge claim named the “mathematical ” which is not deducable out of mathematics. Hentig has offered the book “Magier oder Magister? Über die Einheit der Wissenschaft im Verständigungsprozess”, in which he discusses generally
