Abstract

This work proposes four dimensions for studying the topics of community and meaning in two of the main figures of Contemporary Sociological Theory, A. Giddens and J. Habermas. First, the modernity of community in the classical perspectives. Second, the shared points of view and the  differences in the theory of both authors about the meaning. Third, the theoretical development of the concepts of reflexive communities in Giddens and communication community in Habermas. Fourth, the divergent  positions and suggestions of one and other about community, meaning and
modernity.
