[en] The aim of this theoretic paper is to demonstrate the value of French sociology of critique as a post-Bourdieusian critical sociology. Against interpretations of justifications as cultural tool kits unconsciously mobilized by actors, we suggest that its notion of ‘grammar’ is useful to articulate the normative moral macro-elements that motivate local actions and justifications. In a second time, phenomenology helps us to understand at a deeper level those justifications as expressions of fundamental ways of relating to the world. In this sense phenomenology is useful to a moral sociology of critique because it helps to find solution to the possible contradiction between justification and action that sociology of critique left unsolved, as we will see by an empirical example called up in the field of solidarity economy.
