Subjectivism and Interpretative Methodology in Theory and Practice

Fu-Lai Tony Yu

�Subjectivism and Interpretative Methodology in Theory and Practice� uses the subjectivist approach originated in Max Weber�s interpretation method, Alfred Schutz�s phenomenology, and Peter Berger and Thomas Luckmann�s sociology of knowledge to understand economic and social phenomena. This method brings human agency back into the forefront of analysis, adding new insights not only in economics and management, but also in sociology, politics, psychology and organizational behavior.
