Question: Jürgen Habermas was chosen by the readers of a magazine as one of their favorites among the "world's leading thinkers.", What is the nationality of this magazine ?
Context: The Theory of Communicative Action (German: "Theorie des kommunikativen Handelns" ) is a two-volume 1981 book by Jürgen Habermas, in which Habermas continues his project of finding a way to ground "the social sciences in a theory of language", which had been set out in "On the Logic of the Social Sciences" (1967).  The two volumes are "Reason and the Rationalization of Society" ("Handlungsrationalität und gesellschaftliche Rationalisierung"), in which Habermas establishes a concept of communicative rationality, and "Lifeworld and System: A Critique of Functionalist Reason" ("Zur Kritik der funktionalistischen Vernunft"), in which Habermas creates the two level concept of society and lays out the critical theory for modernity.  After writing "The Theory of Communicative Action", Habermas expanded upon the theory of communicative action by using it as the basis of his theory of morality, democracy, and law.  The work has inspired many responses by social theorists and philosophers, and in 1998 was listed by the International Sociological Association as the eighth most important sociological book of the 20th century. Prospect is a monthly British general interest magazine, specialising in politics, economics and current affairs.  Topics include British, European, and US politics, social issues, art, literature, cinema, science, the media, history, philosophy, and psychology.  It features a mixture of lengthy analytic articles, first-person reportage, one-page columns, and shorter, quirky items. The Foucault–Habermas debate is a dispute concerning whether Michel Foucault's ideas of "power analytics" and "genealogy" or Jürgen Habermas's ideas of "communicative rationality" and "discourse ethics" provide a better critique of the nature of "power" within society.  The debate compares and evaluates the central ideas of Habermas and Foucault as they pertain to questions of power, reason, ethics, modernity, democracy, civil society, and social action. Thinkers of the New Left is a 1985 book by the English philosopher Roger Scruton, in which the author analyses and criticizes the New Left.  Scruton concentrates on 14 authors he considers representatives of the movement: E. P. Thompson, Ronald Dworkin, Michel Foucault, R. D. Laing, Raymond Williams, Rudolf Bahro, Antonio Gramsci, Louis Althusser, Immanuel Wallerstein, Jürgen Habermas, Perry Anderson, György Lukács, John Kenneth Galbraith and Jean-Paul Sartre.  "Thinkers of the New Left" proved controversial because of Scruton's attacks on the British left, and according to Scruton himself, its reception damaged his career.  Some of the material in "Thinkers of the New Left" appeared in reworked form in a 2015 book titled "Fools, Frauds and Firebrands". The works of the German sociologist and philosopher Jürgen Habermas (born June 18, 1929) includes books, papers, contributions to journals, periodicals, newspapers, lectures given at conferences and seminars, reviews of works by other authors, and dialogues and speeches given in various occasions.  Working in the tradition of critical theory and pragmatism.  Habermas is perhaps best known for his theory on the concepts of 'communicative rationality' and the 'public sphere'.  His work focuses on the foundations of social theory and epistemology, the analysis of advanced capitalistic societies and democracy, the rule of law in a critical social-evolutionary context, and contemporary politics—particularly German politics.  Habermas's theoretical system is devoted to revealing the possibility of reason, emancipation, and rational-critical communication latent in modern institutions and in the human capacity to deliberate and pursue rational interests. In this article Jürgen Habermas, Sara Lennox, and Frank Lennox attempt to examine the notions of Habermas's thesis, The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere" focusing on the development of the public sphere today.  The article begins by demonstrating the idea of a public sphere, referring to it as a “concept” in which private individuals assemble to form a public body in an “unrestricted fashion”.  According to Habermas, the public sphere itself is to derive from democracy.  He highlights the importance of the freedom to assemble and to express opinions in an inclusive manner.  The opinions on matters of general interest from a large public body require a vehicle of transmission in order to supply information and enable the possibility for societal influence.  He determines that the modern means for this transmission are through media such as newspapers, magazines, television, and radio. " Universal pragmatics, more recently placed under the heading of formal pragmatics, is the philosophical study of the necessary conditions for reaching an understanding through communication.  The philosopher Jürgen Habermas coined the term in his essay "What is Universal Pragmatics?"  (Habermas 1979), where he suggests that human competition, conflict, and strategic action are attempts to achieve understanding that have failed because of modal confusions.  The implication is that coming to terms with how people understand or misunderstand one another could lead to a reduction of social conflict. Jürgen Habermas ( or ; ] ; born 18 June 1929) is a German sociologist and philosopher in the tradition of critical theory and pragmatism.  He is perhaps best known for his theories on communicative rationality and the public sphere.  In 2014, Prospect readers chose Habermas as one of their favourites among the "world's leading thinkers." Legitimation crisis refers to a decline in the confidence of administrative functions, institutions, or leadership.  The term was first introduced in 1973 by Jürgen Habermas, a German sociologist and philosopher.  Habermas expanded upon the concept, claiming that with a legitimation crisis, an institution or organization does not have the administrative capabilities to maintain or establish structures effective in achieving their end goals.  The term itself has been generalized by other scholars to refer not only to the political realm, but to organizational and institutional structures as well.  While there is not unanimity among social scientists when claiming that a legitimation crisis exists, a predominant way of measuring a legitimation crisis is to consider public attitudes toward the organization in question. Richard Jacob Bernstein (born May 14, 1932) is an American philosopher who teaches at The New School for Social Research, and has written extensively about a broad array of issues and philosophical traditions including Classical American Pragmatism, Neopragmatism, Critical Theory, Deconstruction, Social Philosophy, Political Philosophy, and Hermeneutics.  His work is best known for the way in which it examines the intersections between different philosophical schools and traditions, bringing together thinkers and philosophical insights that would otherwise remain separated by the analytic/continental divide in 20th century philosophy.  The pragmatic and dialogical "ethos" that pervades his works has also been displayed in a number of philosophical exchanges with other contemporary thinkers like Hannah Arendt, Jürgen Habermas, Richard Rorty, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Jacques Derrida, Agnes Heller, and Charles Taylor.  Bernstein is an engaged public intellectual concerned not only with the specialized debates of academic philosophy, but also with the larger issues that touch upon social, political, and cultural aspects of contemporary life.  Throughout his life Bernstein has actively endorsed a number of social causes and has been involved in movements of participatory democracy, upholding some of the cardinal virtues of the American pragmatist tradition, including a commitment to fallibilism, engaged pluralism, and the nurturing of critical communities.
