Summary, in English
Drawing on our experiences in developing methods for contextual analysis, the authors have recognized a need to reflect upon sense-making process, as part of analysis in practice. For us, such critically informed inquiry represents a venture in practical philosophy, drawing on hermeneutics and phenomenology. By conceptualizing a second order discourse on inquiry into systems, researchers may be enabled to move beyond limitations of socio-technical approaches and be supported in their application of philosophy. We suggest that the proposed taxonomy may provide a clue to differentiate between philosophically grounded socio-technical inquiries, and philosophical practice as an integral part of analysis.
