Abstract

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. Basic for this article is Husserl’s phenomenological lifeworld analysis of the mathematized modern natural science. Habermas, in whose social theory the concept of lifeworld has also a central meaning, recommends a theoretic communicational approach for the lifeworld analysis which answers the question about the intersubjective constitution of the lifeworld in the sense of the american pragmatism. 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
