Ética do discurso e racionalidade comunicativa são temas fortes na filosofia de Habermas. Ambos se voltam para o estudo dos efeitos ilocucionários que os atos de fala causam na atividade comunicativa dos falantes. A presença do sujeito, no sentido da modernidade, tornou-se problema na construção da argumentação a favor da ação comunicativa, e isso se tornou motivo de discordâncias quanto à proposta de fundamentação pela pragmática formal que Habermas propõe para afirmar a sua teoria da ação comunicativa. Neste artigo, discutimos, particularmente, o entrelaçamento entre ética e técnica com sujeito, tríade que garante o sucesso da ação comunicativa. Dado que a ética do discurso resulta em decisões coletivas dos concernidos, perguntamos até que ponto isto é possível e necessário, e vinculamos esta discussão com o tema da ética e da responsabilidade no contexto de justificações e argumentações a favor de uma fundamentação possível da ética contemporânea.Abstract: Discourse ethics and rationality are strong themes through out all Habermasian philosophy. Both themes come close to the study of the illocutionary effects that the speech acts bring to the communicative action. The presence of the modern subject constitutes mistake in the construction of the argumentative process towards communicative action, and this is mistaken by many criticists. This is motive of disagree in relation to the foundation way through the universal pragmatic that Habermas proposes to state your theory of communicative action. We aim here, in particular, to tell about some interlacing between ethics and technic with subject, three basis that ensures the success of the communicative action. Supposing that the discourse ethics comes out as result of collective decisions, we ask up to where it is necessary and possible, and link this discussion with theme of the responsibility and ethics concerning to arguments and justification in behalf of a possilbe foundationalism of the contemporary ethics.

Theory Of Language

Abstract The performativity theory starts from a critique of the descriptivist and representation a list theory of language, thus, language and word use cease to appear as mere modalities of describing the world and our connection with the environment, and become a manner of acting and of producing action. Prefigured in the Theory of Communicative Action of J.L. Austin, further analyzed by J. R. Searle and other pragmatists, the illocutionary speech acts make the distinction between the content of an expression and the action that we undertake through it. Their transformation in action is a transition from the assertion plan to the realization plan, through the explicit performative utterances (“I order you to”, “I ask you to”, “I solicit that you”).

Normative Foundation

El objetivo de este artículo es defender que la pragmática transcendental ofrece la fundamentación normativa de la teoría crítica como teoría de la acción comunicativa. Para ello se expondrá en primer lugar el problema de la normatividad en la Teoría Crítica de la sociedad. Tras describir la forma que adquiere esta teoría tras el giro lingüístico operado por Jürgen Habermas, se reconstruirán en tercer lugar los elementos fundamentales de la pragmática transcendental apeliana y habermasiana. En cuarto y último lugar se mostrará que este modelo constituye la fundamentación normativa de la nueva teoría crítica. The aim of this paper is to argue that transcendental pragmatics constitutes the normative foundation of critical theory, understood as theory of communicative action. To that end, the issue of normativity within Critical Theory discussions is first exposed. After describing the form this theory takes from the linguistic turn carried out by Jürgen Habermas, key elements of Karl Otto Apel´s and Jürgen Habermas´ transcendental pragmatics are thirdly reconstructed. Fourth paragraph shows that this model operates as the normative foundation of the new critical theory.

The article deals with defining the characteristics of the authority discourse development in modern society. The localization of the urban area has been chosen as the field of the authority discursive power strategies development. The author's scheme of authority discourse analysis in the urban area has been suggested basing on the methodological principles of a discourse-analytical strategy and involving the heuristic potential of a socio-cultural and semiotic analysis, as a result of the specific empirical study. The analysis of theoretical frames for the study of the concepts of «discourse» and «authority» has made it possible to determine a variety of communicative actions, which subject can only be the authority – an institutional discourse, namely, a political perspective. It is proposed to define a political discourse as a set of all speech acts in the appropriate institutional atmosphere, which is implemented in both oral and written forms within this study. The consideration of the background, expectations of the author and the audience, hidden motives, plot schemes etc. are provided in this article. It has been noted that it is appropriate to use the categorization approach to the «soft power» concept, which proposes to consider the power as the one which is implemented in the form of a certain communicative action. The behavior dictated by the authorities is perceived by a recipient as a voluntary choice during its relization. Such categories of the investigation as cultural mechanisms of nomination, classification, legitimation and naturalization are stressed analysing a political discourse in an urban area. The author's matrix of the analysis of the authority discourse in the urban area which includes its strategies, grammatology, idioms and the nature of their projection in discursive strategies of main subjects of discourse development has been described.

Speech Content

Discussion of the ethics of digital communication often focuses on the speech content communicated, rather than on the speech acts performed. This can be illustrated by data protection approaches to rights to privacy, which seek to prevent the reuse of personal content unless the relevant data subjects give informed consent. Unfortunately, the partition of content into personal and non-personal is insecure: personal data can sometimes be inferred from data not seen as personal. A more robust approach to digital ethics would focus on communicative action, and would query the degree of protection and above all the anonymity available to those who control and organize others’ digital communication.

Theory Of Communicative Action

This completed action research utilizes the conceptual framework of quantum mechanics in action science field studies for bias-free behavioral data collection and quantification. The research question tied to experimental verification if action research field studies can practically utilize the theory of communicative action and the theory of quantum mechanics to contextualize the quantification with pathological and distorted behavioral pattern. The result is a quantum-like formalism that provides intermediary conceptuality for organizational intervening initiatives. This process of contextualization behavior in projects via quantum probability experimentally evidenced. The chapter concludes by reviewing the results of two experiments that the hypotheses that the theory of quantum mechanics and the theory of communicative action qualifies as a building block for a planned methodological approach to intervene and steer problematic social structures in the desired direction.
