Resumen:
The issue of the conceptual priority of the life-world in relation to any abstract scientific speculation is a recurring theme throughout the writings of Alfred Schutz. In them, the ontological reflection on the life-world is established as the basis and the foundation for the subsequent formation of scientific concepts in the social sciences. In particular we intend to recover what may be called an 'epistemic claim' of sociology to the life-world. That claim is part of the Schutzian project for phenomenological foundation of the social sciences, which can be traced back to his early work, in the discussions engaged in by the Austrian School of Economics. The reconstruction of this debate will enable us to think about the link between life-world and scientific reason, so as to avoid the reification of social reality by social scientists.
