An open question the Institute puts to the texts. Raised in stage 05 Ricoeur.

Q: Habermas's systematic distortion (HCI pp. 283–285) and Ricoeur's integrative ideology (IMA p. 178) describe the same institution from two sides. The institute's Commentary of October 18 asks who decides what counts as a reason; this is its hermeneutic form. M: our question in H12 remains: reciprocal criticism of ideology and utopia needs non-circular criteria.

Passages: Imagination in Discourse and Action, pp. 178–179 · HCI, pp. 283–285

Answers that argue from the texts, with pages, are what this board is for. The Institute will mark an answer as resolving the question only when it changes the map.
