Jürgen Habermas on Interpretation - Dictionary of Arguments

III 150
Interpretation/action/situation/Habermas: None of the participants in an action situation has a monopoly on interpretation. Each communication participant assigns the various elements of the action situation to one of the three worlds (one objective, one social world and one subjective world as the entirety of the speaker's privilegedly accessible experiences).
>Objective world
, >Subjective world, >Social world.
Interpretations do not have to lead to a stable and clearly differentiated classification in every case or even normally.
III 154
Standards-regulated action: in its interpretation the actor challenges the interpreter to check not only the actual conformity with a standard or the actual validity of a standard, but also the correctness of that standard itself.
>Norms, >Correctness.
III 155
The interpreter can reject this challenge as pointless from a sceptical point of view.
>Values, >Sense.
III 158
Problem: for the understanding of communicative actions we have to distinguish between questions of meaning and validity. The interpretation performance of an observer differs from the coordination efforts of the participants.
>Observation, >Exterior/Interior.
The observer does not seek an interpretation able to take a consensus. But perhaps only the functions differed here, not the structures of interpretation.
