Building knowledge. between measure and meaning

a phenomenological approach

Rocco Sacconaghi

pp. 51-68

In this chapter I intend to propose a phenomenological approach to the problem of the synthesis of analytical data – of which social indicators are a subset. Phenomenology is a "theoretical practice" (Husserl 1959) that is realized as a rigorous description of experience (which is, as such, subjective and inter-subjective) in its totality, aimed at understanding its fundamental structures (Husserl 1959, 1976; Scheler 1986).
