Abstract:The aim of Habermas’s theory of communicative action is to distinguish the communicative rationality from the instrumental rationality, this will turn out to be the case only if it can be shown that the distinction between illocutionary acts and perlocutinary acts is clear, moreover, illocutionary acts is not only one kind of independent acts but also more original than perlocutionary acts. In this paper, I will argue that the justification Habermas offers is not so convincing, so there are many fundamental fallacies in Habermas’s theory of communicative action.
Keywords：communicative action. strategic action. illocutionary acts. perlocutionary acts. validity claims.
