Abstract

Building on Structurationist sociology, this work explores Paul C. Mocombe’s synthesis of phenomenology and structural Marxism, phenomenological structuralism, as an essay in Structurationist theory and the phenomenological ontology of Edmund Husserl, Martin Heidegger, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Jean-Paul Sartre in order to resolve the structure/agency problematic of the social sciences.
