Studying Communication as Human Action.  aThis book explores the philosophical foundations of communication studies, suggesting that communication phenomena extend beyond the scope of traditional scientific methods. It argues that communication, deeply intertwined with human behavior, cannot be fully comprehended through empirical methods alone. The book presents an epistemological alternative to empiricism in communication studies—an alternative rooted in the praxeological perspective. Drawing from the principles of rationalism, it proposes that conclusions about communication can be deduced from a priori theoretical truths, rather than empirical evidence. This book is a crucial resource for scholars in both philosophy and communication studies. 0aCommunication. 0aInformation theory. 0aPhilosophy and social sciences. 0aPolitical sciencexPhilosophy. 0aCommunicationxMethodology. 0aSocial sciences.14aMedia and Communication Theory.24aPhilosophy of the Social Sciences.24aPolitical Philosophy.24aMedia and Communication Methods.24aSociety.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978981971012608iPrinted edition:z978981971014008iPrinted edition:z978981971015740uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-97-1013-3
