ABSTRACT
The inevitable conclusion from Wittgenstein’s philosophical endeavours is simply that one can either investigate the logic of language, i.e. make a linguistic analysis of concepts, propositions, etc., without referring to anything else but grammar and meaning; or investigate the structure of the world, i.e. the conceptual reality contained in evaluations, beliefs, institutions, norms, descriptions, etc., and their consequences. For the logical conclusion is the inevitability of sociological analysis in determining the use of language as a set of concepts on reality, for linguistic or logical analysis will not suffice in illustrating the relationship between concept and reality even in philosophical assertions. In sociology the analysis proceeds with the logic of experiment and not with intuitive organization, however apt it may seem to the observers of sociological activity—because the relationship between thought and knowledge is exactly the same as in all science.
