Niklas Luhmann on Lifeworld - Dictionary of Arguments

Habermas IV 232
Lifeworld/Luhmann/Habermas: Luhmann hypostasizes the world that has been pushed back behind media-controlled subsystems, which no longer directly follows the action situations, but only forms the background for organized systems of action, into "society".
>Society/Luhmann
.
Habermas IV 394
Lifeworld/Mechanization of the Lifeworld/Luhmann/Habermas: (see Communication Media/Parsons): Lifeworld/Parsons/Habermas: the conversion of the coordination of actions from language to control media means a decoupling of the interaction from life-world contexts.
In this context Luhmann speaks of a mechanization of the lifeworld; by this he means "the relief of sense-processing processes of experiencing and acting from the reception, formulation and communicative explication of all sense references implied (Habermas: in the lifeworld context of communication-oriented action)".(1)
>Communication/Luhmann.
Habermas: Media-controlled interactions can connect in space and time to ever more complex networks without these communicative networks having to be overlooked and taken responsibility for, even if only in the form of a collectively shared cultural knowledge.
Then it is no longer a question of the accountability of the interaction participants.
>Action/Luhmann, >Action system/Luhmann.
