Funded Activity Summary

Judgment, responsibility, and the life-world: The phenomenological critique of formalism. This project will contribute to building Australia's capacity in the area of phenomenology and connecting Australian researchers into the international network of phenomenology research. More generally the project will contribute to the broader community debate that is currently emerging around issues of the role and limits of knowledge, especially scientific knowledge, but also knowledge as it arises and is applied in organisational and social contexts, and the importance of responsibility and judgment even in areas of technical problem-solving and decision-making. In this latter respect, the project is likely to have an impact in more directly applied areas such as policy formation and decision-making across many different areas.
