(1986) Rationality, relativism and the human sciences, Dordrecht, Springer.
In this paper, I shall discuss the notions of intentionality and rationality and their bearing on the human studies. I will start with brief analyses of the two notions and the relation between them. I will then concentrate on rationality and devote a substantial part of the paper to the role rationality plays in human studies. Finally, I will discuss the exact status that rationality assumptions should be given in the methodology of the human studies.
