| Abstract: | The author focuses his comments on two more fundamental meta-aspects of the paper. First, he comments on the notion of an intellectual framework as presented by the authors. Is this type of project feasible? What is its potential benefit and its drawbacks? Secondly, the author focuses on the foundation of their proposed intellectual framework, namely, the social action theory of Urgen Habermas. Specifically, his theory of communicative action (as used by the authors). |
