Talcott Parsons on Generalization - Dictionary of Arguments
Habermas IV 267 Generalization/Talcott Parsons/Habermas: Def Value Generalization/Parsons: this is what Parsons calls the tendency that the value orientations that are institutionally suggested to the actors become more and more general and formal in the course of development. >Values. This trend arises with structural necessity from a legal and moral development that shifts the securing of consensus for conflicts to ever more abstract levels. Even the simplest interaction systems do not function without a certain degree of generalized action orientation. >Action/Parsons, >Law, >Morality. The basic problem is: how does ego manage alter to continue an interaction in the desired way - how does he avoid a conflict that interrupts the action sequence? Habermas: We come across trivial elements that are not bound to any special prerequisites: the prestige that ego enjoys and the influence it exerts. When a respected person takes the initiative, he/she can count on an advance of trust that (...) pays off in a willingness to reach a consensus and to follow up on individual situations. The prestige that some people have is reflected in the generalized action orientations of the other interaction participants. >Generalization/Habermas, >Recognition._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
