Answer
The main goal of the phenomenological reduction, a key concept in Husserl's mature work, is to develop a systematic foundational science. By "bracketing" or setting aside our assumptions about the world, phenomenological reduction allows us to focus on the structures of consciousness and the phenomena that appear in acts of consciousness, ultimately leading to a more rigorous and systematic understanding of human experience.
