Abstract
This paper analyses the phenomenological tradition with respect to the formation and usage of the concept of `life-world'. The methodological guidelines and research types from Alfred Schutz's social phenomenology are employed as the immediate perspective of the analysis. More specifically, this is an attempt to see and interpret `the life-world of socialism' from the viewpoint of the `structures of the life-world' described by Schutz (1966). Regarding the latter as historically produced allows for their use as a yardstick to interpret the peculiarities of the world of socialism and the present trends of this world's restructuring during the period of transition from a totalitarian to a democratic society, including the construction of a `modern' life-world.
