Jürgen Habermas on Teleology - Dictionary of Arguments

III 130
Teleology/Habermas: The model of teleological action equips the actor with a "cognitive-volatile complex" so that he/she can develop opinions and intentions. At the semantic level, facts are represented here as propositional contents of statements or intentions. The statements of an actor may be judged by third parties to be appropriate or inappropriate.

We can classify teleological action as a term that presupposes a world, the objective world. This also applies to the concept of strategic action.
