Alfred Schutz (; born Alfred Schütz, German: [??ts]; 1899–1959) was an Austrian philosopher and social phenomenologist whose work bridged sociological and phenomenological traditions.
Schutz is gradually being recognized as one of the twentieth century's leading philosophers of social science.
He related Edmund Husserl's work to the social sciences, and influenced Max Weber's legacy of philosophical foundations for sociology and economics through Schutz's major work, Phenomenology of the Social World.
