About my library "The well-informed citizen finds himself placed in a domain that belongs to an infinite number of possible frames of reference. There are no pregiven ready-made ends, no fixed borderlines within which he can look for shelter. He has to choose the frame of reference by choosing his interest, he has to investigate the zones of relevance adhering to it, and he has to gather as much knowledge as possible of the origin of and sources of relevances actually or potentially imposed on him." Alfred Schutz. "The well-informed citizen." In: Collected papers. Vol. II. Studies in social theory. The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff, 1964, 120-134.
LocationChicago, DC, Becket Mass.
