ABSTRACT

Recently, the concept of convergence has been a hot issue in the academic community. It was sometimes called a new paradigm of scientific research. This means our sciences (Wissenschaften) face big changes. These changes reflect a crisis of traditional sciences and, at the same time, a chance for new areas of science. In this paper, I have tried to explicate the meaning and the possibility of the convergence of sciences from the perspective of Husserl's phenomenology. Husserl, just like us, lived in the era of big changes of science, and wanted to give a foundation for the system of science through his project of phenomenology. According to his phenomenological project, the convergence of sciences is both possible and meaningful. I have tried to show how it is possible and to suggest a new implication of Husserl's phenomenology in the era of convergence.
