Konstruiranje socialnih dejstev in kulturnih pomenov

In my paper I investigate a particular class of objects, i.e. the so called "cultural" objects. I argue that all cultural objects are social objects, but not all social objects are cultural. Social objects are observer relative as cultural objects too, but cultural objects show an intrinsic dependence to social groups and their cultures which does not obtain in the case of social objects. The investigation is concerned with concrete cultural objects mainly and its conclusion is that a concrete social object can be characterized as "cultural" if the intentional actions, which produced the object at issue, imply the presence of a cultural meaning. The notion of meaning is conceived phenomenologically as a species that is instantiated in intentional contents. A cultural meaning (or a »culture- constitutive« meaning) is a meaning which is instantiated in the intentional contents of a single social group.
