Abstract

This work explores the nature of language and meaning according to Paul C. Mocombe’s structurationist theory of phenomenological structuralism. The author posits that language is a tool used in human society to both capture the nature of reality as such, and how we ought to recursively organize and reproduce our being-in-the-world within the aforementioned systemicity or structure despite the human potential to defer meaning in ego-centered communicative discourse.
