The aim of this paper is to show how Rudolf Carnap’s distinction between internal and external questions might be extended and applied to social theory. Following Carnap, I argue that a question is internal to a framework if it can be answered within the given framework; on the other side, a question is external to a framework if it calls into question the framework itself. Here, I discuss this distinction and its consequences for the social theory through an analysis focused on the "Constitution of the Italian Republic" framework and on the notion of justice.
