Observation, communication and language

Main Article Content

Abstract

The article revolves around the following two questions; to know: a) Can we
not to observe what we observe?; b) Can we communicate through language that which we do not observe?, or rather: Can we, through language, not communicate what we observe, or even, communicate anything else different from that which we watch? The thesis proposed consists of a negative answer to both questions. Then, the aim is to establish a basis of analysis centred in an on observation category which, taking as basis the contributions of the modern Theory of the Observation, it allows to operate with distinctions in order to, from here, recognizing the critical distinctions from the non critical ones. The purpose of every social theory has to consist, therefore, of taking the former as a core unit of analysis, and to exclude the latter.
