Intersubjectivity

Modern philosophy (21st century)

The reciprocal relation between subjects. Not isolated subjects that then encounter each other, but subjectivity that is intersubjectively constituted from the beginning. For us: a performative presupposition of every logic.

Origin

Buber, Levinas, Habermas, Apel: intersubjectivity as a basic dimension of human existence. Against solipsistic philosophy (Descartes, Husserl).
