Habermas on the relationship between communicative rationality and moral-practical rationality
The concept of communicative rationality is proposed by Habermas in order to solve the crisis of modernity.Because of the relationship between Habermas's theory and Weber's theory,and because of the shift in the focus of his later work,the position of this concept in the modern map of rationality seems to have been unresolved.The key to solving this problem lies in understanding the relationship between communicative rationality and moral-practical rationality.In the theory of cognitive interest and the theory of communicative action,Habermas has distinguished between these two rationalities from the two levels of rational interest and behavior,which is merely one aspect of the relationship.In Habermas's theory,the task of communicative rationality is to both acknowledge the fact that the basic rationalities of modern society have been differentiated from each other,and to achieve their limited unity under this premise.Accordingly,in the face of the erosion of one's legitimate territory,moral-practical rationality should be reconstructed in accordance with the validity requirements,principles and procedures provided by the communicative rationality,which includes the three specific areas of morality,law and religion.
