Lifeworld refers to the commonsense interpretive frames and logics by which individuals pre‐refiectively conceptually organize their perceptions of everyday life. The concept of the lifeworld is central to two theoretical traditions – phenomenology and the critical theory tradition as articulated by Habermas – but the lifeworld is also an important concept in sociological investigations into the construction of knowledge and the social body.
