subsystem and absolved itself of the task of conceiving society as a whole. In opposition to natural-law normativism, it excluded moral practical questions of legitimacy from scientific
consideration, or it treated them as empirical questions about descriptively ascertainable beliefs in legitimacy. It thereby broke off relations to the rationality problematic.
