本文探讨了批判现实主义和符号论（或意义的主体间生产）的相互影响。它认为批判现实主义必须将符号学纳入其对社会关系和社会结构的解释中。这远远超出了原因是否可以成为原因的问题，还包括符号学的述行性以及解释（verstehen）和因果解释（erklA¤ren）之间的关系等更基本的问题。然后，本文展示了批判现实主义如何通过结构的进化方法将符号学整合到其对结构和能动性辩证法的解释中。它还展示了批判符号学分析（包括批判话语分析）如何从批判现实主义中受益。在后一方面，我们考虑文本实践中符号学效应和符号外效应的出现，并给出两个简短的说明，说明它如何从特定文本中发挥作用。本文最后提出了关于社会关系的话语和超话语方面的阐述及其对批判现实主义的影响的更一般性建议。
This paper explores the mutual implication of critical realism and semiosis (or the intersubjective production of meaning). It argues that critical realism must integrate semiosis into its account of social relations and social structuration. This goes well beyond the question of whether reasons can be causes to include more basic issues of the performativity of semiosis and the relationship between interpretation (verstehen) and causal explanation (erklA¤ren). The paper then demonstrates how critical realism can integrate semiosis into its accounts of dialectic of structure and agency through an evolutionary approach to structuration. It also demonstrates how critical semiotic analysis (including critical discourse analysis) can benefit from critical realism. In the latter respect we consider the emergence of semiotic effects and extra-semiotic effects from textual practices and give two brief illustrations of how this works from specific texts. The paper concludes with more general recommendations about the articulation of the discursive and extra-discursive aspects of social relations and its implications for critical realism.
