Teaching

Juchem mainly worked at the Bonn Institute for Communication Research and Phonetics as assistant to Gerold Ungeheuer . He derives his theses from considerations of sign theory and epistemology . The terms reflexivity and ethnomethodology are particularly important here . In his teaching he develops extensive communication semantics . The central assumption is that communication is in principle fallible , i. H. Although there is a possibility of understanding available, which regularly succeeds, but ultimately one cannot be certain whether a person has understood his counterpart, since everyone has an individual world theory and no one can share the consciousness of a counterpart in order to determine whether the verbal instruction of a communication participant also exactly led to the intended internal execution of the action. With this theory, he takes a relatively radical position in communication science.
