Abstract

The analytical method, understood as the main approach of analytic philosophy, can be treated as one of the practices that are supported in society, since they have a certain pragmatic significance for this society. In the first part of the article, we noted the need for a reform of the analytical method and showed that the basis for such a reform could be a performative approach, which recently has helped to restructure many fields of social and humanitarian knowledge. The performative approach make it possible to combine the analytical method with the methodology of social criticism, allowing to develop theories that have both analytical rigor and the necessary potential for solving current social problems. In the second part of the article, we turn to attempts of such combining and analyze its effects, in particular in analytical feminism, critical theory of gender and race, and modern social criticism in general.
