عالم الحياة


Explanation:
"By the lifeworld Habermas means the shared common understandings, including values, that develop through face to face contacts over time in various social groups, from families to communities. The lifeworld carries all sorts of assumptions about who we are as people and what we value about ourselves: what we believe, what shocks and offends us, what we aspire to, what we desire, what we are willing to sacrifice to which ends, and so forth."
I would suggest translating it as "عالم الحياة".

العالم الاجتماعي


Explanation:
العالم الذاتي
العالم الافتراضي

Life-world
In Phenomenology, the world as immediately or directly experienced in the subjectivity of everyday life, as sharply distinguished from the objective "worlds" of the sciences, which employ the methods of the mathematical sciences of nature; although these sciences originate in the life-world, they are not those of everyday life.

Life-world

From Schutz, the world of shared social meanings in which actors live and interact.
