Communicative rationality is being defined by Habermas as: those communicative conditions in which all kinds of validity claims may be articulated (Zierhofer, 2002, p 1364). This form of rationality is together with instrumental rationality the bases of Habermas stucturation of communication. Communicative rationality is also summarized by Szczelkun and he states that Habermas defines communicative rationality as: communication that is oriented to achieving, sustaining and reviewing consensus (www.csudh.edu)

Habermas developed his typology of rationalities and coordination of actions in order to gain an instrument for his analysis and critique on modernity (Zierhofer, 2002, p 1365). His critique can be found in the way rationality often is seen. Habermas underlines the important aspect of the social part within rationality. With his key definition he shifts the emphasis in our concept of rationality form the conceptual tot the social (www.csudh.eud). The instruments Habermas created for his analysis and critique had to link individual action and their conditions with forms of collectivity (Zierhofer, 2002, p 1365).
