Jürgen Habermas on Immunization - Dictionary of Arguments
IV 281 Immunization/Legitimation/Sociology/Habermas: at first glance, it is a mystery how the ideological interpretation of the world and society can assert itself against the appearance of barbaric injustice. >Injustice, >Justice, >Interpretation, >World, >Society, >Objectivity. IV 282 Thanks to a fusion of ontic, normative and expressive aspects of validity and thanks to the ritually secured fixation of an appropriate belief attitude, the basic concepts that carry the burden of legitimation of ideologically effective worldviews, as it were, are immunized against objections that are already within the cognitive reach of everyday communication. >Basic concepts. This immunization can succeed if the institutional separation between sacral and profane sphere of action ensures that the foundations of tradition are not addressed in the wrong place: within the sacral sphere, communication remains systematically restricted due to the lack of differentiation of the sphere of validity, i.e. due to formal conditions of possible understanding. >Validity claims, >Perspective, >Outside/inside._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
