Idea-Based Social Phenomena Analysis

Abstract

Analyzing the phenomena of the social world based on the idea is the purpose of this article. The paper attempts to show that ideas as the explanatory factor can be used in the study of social and political issues. To explain the analytic role of the idea, we take a constructivist-interpretive overview of the question "How is it possible?". Accordingly, the thinking human is at the center of attention. According to the constructivist-interpretive approach, it is the qualities in the thinking human that enable him to construct an idea of meaning and then give effect to it. These features include: 1) the human mental structure, (2) the ideographic perception of human, (3) the representational role of concepts and language in human, (4) causality in human, (5) rationality in human action. This article explains how human beings can influence the phenomena of the social world by explaining these characteristics in humans. By Understanding how the idea is influenced we show that the idea has the potential to be used as an explanatory factor for the analysis of social phenomena, including politics.
