The late nineteenth and early twentieth century, shaken by dramatic changes in the times of Western civilization and its values, destroying the theory of self-confidence and rational beliefs. The trend of anti-metaphysics, Hegel was as "dead dogs," abandoned, the spirit of positivism in the philosophy of rationalism increasingly dominated the field. Although Dilthey established a "spiritual science", and Frank, Droysen formed a historical school, etc., emphasizing the historical knowledge, advocate the use of historical reason to replace the primacy of pure reason, but the resulting relativism, such as natural assigned to the same doctrine to the suspect to the difficulties. In this case, as the founder of phenomenology, Husserl, is still holding high moral ideals and a strong desire to seek truth, firmly attached in the "absolutely clear that spiritual life leading to the road." Husserl, the spirit of positivism and irrationalism is not only impossible to restore and save the Western rational tradition, but more intensified with the world wars and the material desires of the human spirit from the crisis and the establishment of a new concept in modern philosophy of human crisis. In this case, only dissection modern Western way of thinking and culture shrouded in fog on the humanistic tradition, leaning over the traditional look and asked the basis of which occurred in ancient Greece——spiritual, real "rational" to get the original, the real revelation and understanding. "He (Husserl) is convinced that to solve the problems of life and value of the firm must first find a rational basis."Therefore,in 1936 Husserl had publishied his last works"The Crisis of European Science and Transcendental Phenomenology," in which he had made "the synthesis crisis"to the philosophy of modern culture,and had reflected the scientific crisis. While grasping the remarkable achievements of Galileo,Newton and their great influence to his Time,Husserl realized that those moumental achievements had made European community be unable to win over the huge contrast between the reality and them. Husserl referred to the crisis meant the real science in this era of science has cleared up, the tasks it set itself the task of philosophy as well as the realization of the method developed by the entire way, has become impossible, and that science crisis, the crisis is actually a philosophy, that is, the strong development of natural science and philosophy of the growing gap between the expansion of recession, eventually led to the crisis of European humanity. Faced with this crisis, Husserl's phenomenology put forward their own philosophy, more precisely, Transcendentalism and the phenomenological. And logical doctrine seeks to eliminate all value judgments as possible, do not inquire as a scientific researcher who target their own cultural and historical significance of the practice, Husserl's phenomenology require the issue of human subject research center as a Philosophical Problem, the value significance of the issue as a focus of the study.Husserl's reflection and renewal of science based on the "life world" is based on the core concept. In Husserl, where "life world" constitutes the foundation and source of science. Science is all there in the world of life. "Living World" as a "special world" the growth of the general scientific world soil science is the universal destination of the world. The continuous development of science makes science itself in areas such as categories and sub-professional, are increasingly becoming those of their professional life. So they formed a life of alienation.In this case, Husserl sought from the accident in Galileo's criticism of the mathematical natural science starting to explore the inherent scientific crises and historical reasons. Mathematics in Natural Science is usually no confirmed number of possible hypotheses as its starting point, no doubt from the start position ofuncertainty placed on Science;Second, Husserl believes that the rise of technology in modern times has become a strong influence on the natural sciences under the mathematical meaning of the reasonableness of the loss is a step by step. Husserl warned scientists not to blindly into scientific thinking among the first to recognize that he is a member of the world of life. Husserl, adhere to live in the world consciousness, can scientists and their careers to find their original sense, to return to their origin. In short, Husserl is through analysis of the crisis of modern European science and the scientific basis of rational criticism, formed their own view of science, put forward the scientific method out of the crisis is to build for the "life world" of the strict philosophy of science. Husserl's concept based on its scientific basis of phenomenological theory, the scientific orientation is a catch-all for the general science. However, the "Living World" Husserl where he was limited to awareness activities within the fields is "conscious behavior and the related item", has not reached the real solution to the crisis in Europe. In the following analysis, we can see that Husserl appears in the opening in the foundation, formed in a sense, this situation leads to some understanding of Marxist Thought "channel."...
