Abstract

Despite all serious critiques regarding the appropriateness and sufficiencyof empirical methodology in the human sciences, it has securedits place in such researches. Critiques of empiricism in the humansciences take advantage of a variety of strategies to disqualify it andto establish their alternatives. It seems that one key issue which isforgotten or overlooked by these critiques is looking into the nature ofthe subject matters of the human sciences and their methodologicalrequisites, which can shed some light on the deficiency of empiricalmethodology in the realm of the human sciences. This article willstart with the methodological principle that the appropriate methodfor studying any subject depends on the nature of its subject matter,which in turn, determines the appropriate research method. On thisbasis, I will try to analyze the nature of the themes in the humansciences to show the incongruity of empirical method with suchconcepts. Analyzing such concepts, shows that they represent avariety of conceptual categories such as first intelligibles, secondaryphilosophical intelligibles, and purely conventional concepts, and tostudy each one of them, one needs to employ a different methodology.Therefore, the article concludes that empirical method has its limitedprivileges in studying some of the issues in the human sciences;however, we need to take a multidimensional approach regarding themethodology of the human sciences.
