Communicative Praxisand the Space of Subjectivity spans the fields of philosophy andcommunication, illustrating how the amalgam of discourse and action, andlanguage and social practices, is constitutive of the way that we define ourselvesand makes sense of the world in which we exist. The author provides an elaboration of an original concept inwhich communication and praxis are commingled, which allows discourse and actionto be viewed as twin halves of the constitution of meaning in our personal andsocial existence. The interwoven texture of discourse and action and languageand social practices accommodates the author's novel notions of reference,self-implicature, and rhetoric. These notions are developed against thebackdrop of an entwined hermeneutical understanding and explanation.Communicative praxis is multifaceted saying, writing, and doing that is about something, by someone, and to and forsomeone. The interlacing moments of hermeneutical reference,self-implicature, and rhetoric display an interface of the fields of philosophyand communication studies. The economy of communicative praxis is stimulated bythe forces of philosophical analysis and interpretation coupled with anacknowledgment of the transactional dynamics in the rhetoric of the ongoingcommunity of investigators and concerned citizens. The art of thinking, whichphilosophers by mandate of their tradition have been called upon to develop,proceeds hand in glove with the contextuality of thought as it emerges from therough and tumble of everyday social and political interactions. It is thus thatCommunicative Praxis and the Space of Subjectivitycan properly be viewed as a work that integrates the disciplines ofphilosophy and communication studies in such a manner as to enrich thecontributions of each.
