  • Ernst BOESCH is one of the outstanding psychologists of the 20th and early 21st centuries. His efforts since the 1950s to develop a "symbolic theory of action" led him to a theory of original cultural psychology. He developed this theory based on his research experiences in Thailand and then verified it based on new questions and objects. In this article I show that BOESCH's years in a culturally foreign country were the decisive impetus for theoretical and methodological innovations. Personal encounters and expansive learning experiences which allowed BOESCH to speak Thai and become acquainted with a previously completely unfamiliar cultural way of life, were the prerequisites for BOESCH's scientific yields and innovations. This existential basis led him to a relational hermeneutics in empirical research, conceptualization and theory-building, in which a sharp distinction between research subject and object is noticeably relaxed. Some further principles and remaining strengths, but also weaknesses and methodological deficits of this action-theoretical cultural psychology will be discussed. (xsd:string)
