Abstract:

AbstractHere, I examine the epistemic relation between beliefs about the nature of sexual orientation (e.g. beliefs concerning whether orientation is dispositional) and beliefs about the taxonomy of orientation categories (e.g. beliefs concerning whether polyamorous is an orientation category). Current philosophical research gives epistemic priority to the former class of beliefs, such that beliefs about the taxonomy of orientation categories tend to be jettisoned or revised in cases of conflict with beliefs about the nature of sexual orientation. Yet, considering the influence of ideology on beliefs about socially significant phenomena, I argue for an epistemic reversal.

Abstract:

As is known, the specifics of the domestic philosophy is, firstly, in its inextricable connection with the public-political life, and secondly, in the form of its existence, when the philosophical problems are not solved in philosophical treatises by the means of the classical wise man, but in literary works through the creation of artistic images, through the deepening of human psychology and, as a conclusion, the formation of values and ideals of personality and through personalities - the whole society.

Full text

Abstract:

The idea developed in this paper is that of a philosophical Qur'anology, or al-falsafiyya al-Qurʾāniyya. It builds on the ideas elaborated in my most recent book, Philosophical Perspectives on Modern Qur'anic Exegesis, which set out to devise a systematic approach to a philosophical Qur'anology. In Philosophical Perspectives I argued that truth is manifestation or disclosure (a-letheia) in the Greek and Heideggerian sense, and I stressed that disclosure is not simply ostensio (‘showing’) and kashf (‘unveiling’), but also orientation of the text (I use ‘orientation’ here with the sense of ‘producing meaning’). With respect to the Qur'an, the a-letheia means that the essence of truth consists in bringing to light the evidence of the text in its Ẓāhirī dimension (from the perspective of Ibn Ḥazm al-Qurṭubī (d. 456/1064)), a topic which deserves further study.The approach taken in this article is, then, philosophical and theoretical. Although philosophy has been widely used to interpret the Qur'an, what I am proposing is a modern philosophical approach to the Qur'an as philosophy. Thus, in the same way that the Qur'an has been studied as a revealed, or literary, text, I propose that we also read it as a philosophical text.

Full text

Abstract:

Transcendental materialism is a philosophical perspective that uses German Idealism, Marxism, psychoanalysis and natural science to offer a materialist account of subjectivity and culture. This essay compares this philosophical framework with recent work in the study of religion (Manuel Vásquez) and philosophy of religion (Kevin Schilbrack and Thomas A. Lewis). While transcendental materialism has until now been unconcerned with religion, it offers parallels with this recent work. It differs, however, in its specific understanding of the material dimension of the dialectical relationship between abstraction/conceptuality and practice/embodiment.

The objective of this essay is to propose critical realism as a philosophical middle way between two sets of ontological, epistemological, and methodological assumptions regarding learner needs. Key concepts of critical realism, a tradition in the philosophy of science, are introduced and applied toward an analysis of learner needs, resulting in novel ontological and epistemological assertions about learner needs. Retroduction is offered as a methodology for interrogating needs as a function of broad and complex social processes.

Abstract:

The theoretical labor carried out over the past half-century in the field of argumentation theory has become so rich, heterogenous, and controversial by now that there is an urgent need for a philosophically reflected foundation. The present book attempts to deliver such a basis using, in particular, elements of dialectics (Plato, Hegel) and pragmatism (Peirce, Dingler, Lorenzen). It approaches argumentation against the background of the conditio humana: as the medium of maintaining and improving orientation for all aspects of life. This perspective is more abstract than the usual way of addressing argument as a specific way of persuasive communication. However, that abstract philosophical perspective allows, on a concrete level, a more realistic theorization of the practice of argument. Thus, it exhibits some significant new traits, mainly concerning its subjective and its dynamic side.

Abstract:

In the paper presented an attempt is made to describe a general orientation of the worldview of Islamic Neomodernists, representing the new step in developing the revivalist Islamic thought. The common themes in key Neomodernist projects are elicited, while their primary concerns are explained. Special attention is devoted to the problematic theoretical situation which formed Neomodernism, namely the problem of the origins of tradition. The author decides in favour of distinctive understanding of history and of the part reason and Revelation both play in the solution that Neomodernism proposes. The widespread misconceptions about the nature of Neomodernist deconstruction are criticised, as well as the superfi cial explanation of «humanistic hermeneutics». Both obstacles and prospects of the Neomodernist project are explicated. In his conclusion the author indicates the connection between Neomodernism and some trends of Western philosophy.

Abstract:

AbstractScholars remain far from reaching agreement about the structure of Middle Platonist commentaries on Plato's dialogues: some take them to have been running line-by-line commentaries, while others believe that Middle Platonist commentaries were mainly specialist works. In this paper I propose a fresh and comprehensive analysis of extant sources in order to show that both views, while shedding light on important features of this literary genre in Middle Platonism, should be supplemented in order to draw a more complex picture. Extant sources suggest that the Middle Platonist commentaries were characterized by a set of features which shaped a specific conception of the literary genre: they were lemmatic and followed the development of a dialogue in its progression, yet at the same time they applied a thematic focus and hence admitted a substantial degree of selectivity.

Abstract:

Individual differences in ethical reasoning were examined among first-year law school students to determine, among other things, whether gender moderates the process of ethical reasoning. Individuals bring a variety of psychological, philosophical, and ethical orientations to professional life, potentially challenging traditional assumptions concerning appropriate responses to ethical dilemmas. Using both qualitative and quantitative methods, this research demonstrates that the individual differences of gender, learning style, and world view are significantly more influential in the use of an ethic of care and justice (i.e., ethical reasoning), compared with personality and moral orientation factors.

Abstract:

Business education has been blamed for deficiencies in the leadership, decision- making and ethical conduct of business managers. The quantitative and analytical orientation in business school curricula and the consequent lack of humanities-based courses have been identified as reasons. The fundamental reason, however, lies in the philosophy of business research and education which shapes the curricula, teaching methods, and ultimately the graduates' ability to handle various managerial functions. The most commonly recognized philosophical basis of business research is empiricism. The argument presented here is that pragmatism, which shares elements with empiricism, has also significantly shaped business education. This paper is an attempt to show why empiricism, together with pragmatism, are the root causes of the above deficiencies. Supplementing business school curricula with humanities courses, a strategy often recommended to correct for the deficiencies, is not sufficient. As an alternative solution, an objective philosophical approach is evaluated, along with its practical implications for business education.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the analysis of the creative heritage of Panteleimon Kulish in the context of modern realities. Scientific work of Panteleimon Kulish is extremely wide. It includes the general concept of Ukrainian culture and language, the problems of development of the Ukrainian nation, its mentality and historical mission. The proposed article deals, first of all, with the problem of personal orientation of the author related to the "internal" and "external" in human, in his mind and heart. Panteleimon Kulish was not a single researcher who drew attention to the mental feature of Ukrainians in the juxtaposition of heart and mind, feelings and logic. The mental character of such a struggle continues in the opposition to the "city" and "countryside" as an embodiment respectively of civilization and culture. The culture appears for P. Kulish to be something sacred, ancestral and spiritual, which, in fact, creates an inner person. It is argued that in a certain sense the orientation of the movement of civilization and culture is diametrically opposed. Since civilization tends to unify and standardize, culture focused on spiritual potentials, tends towards individuality and uniqueness. Globalization, as a civilization movement leads to integration of the processes and the transformation of national culture towards its unification. The main idea of Kulish reflections during his whole life was an attempt to preserve the national identity of the Ukrainian people, their language and culture, customs and traditions and, at the same time, to involve Ukrainians into the European community. Therefore, the fears of Panteleimon Kulish, concerning civilization pressure on the national culture have undeniable reasons. Finally, the author of the article turns to Kulish thoughts about the problem of the personality of human, his destiny, his national way of life, and also the problems of self-knowledge.

Abstract:

This article has the Russian philosophical community as its object of study. Within the community there are some thinkers and groups that declare their identity as orientation to the native culture and national mentality features. As a concrete object of research the author considers the history of the emergence of these thinkers and groups in post-Soviet Russia, the formation of their institutions and history of relations with other intelligence groups. The author examines in detail the aspects of such topics as historical roots of these new emerging traditions, their representation in the academic and educational institutions, and especially the theoretical platform of their leaders.The research methodology is based on an approach under which the structure network of relationship between intellectuals determines valid intellectual attention space, which is structured into several competing products.The main results of the study can be considered as follows. Firstly, the author presented a description of the history and theoretical features of three intelligent approaches: conservative revolutionaries, Orthodox immanentists and existentialists of tradition. Secondly, the author has given the characteristic stylistic features of selfexpression, historical and philosophical roots and the historic-philosophical concepts of the main representatives of the traditionalists. Finally, the article discusses the features of the vicissitudes of their communication with other members of the Russian intellectual community.

Abstract:

Abstract In his later thought, Martin Heidegger disclaimed the possibility of a philosophical history of philosophy. In his view, the history of philosophy tends to remain bound to a specißc philosophical orientation and offer merely a philosophical position, not philosophy itself, presenting at best nothing more than an assemblage of doctrinal positions. In contrast, Heidegger developed in his early Freiburg lectures of 1919-1923 an historical-phenomenological program of philosophical history directed against the historical school of Dilthey, whose objekthi-storisch perspective he meant to replace with his own vollzugshistorisch method. For Heidegger, there is no perfected subject at the basis of historical investigation, but rather it is the temporality of the observer which makes possible historical knowledge in the ßrst place. Heidegger's later abandonment of this notion is a significant reason for the lack of a philosophical approach to writing the history of philosophy after 1945 in Germany.

Analysis and research of the Confucius’ philosophy is a permanent search and discovery, rethinking his ideas. Analysis of the teachings of Confucius is given in the context of modernization of modern education of China. His thoughts on education and the formation of per-sonality are focused on the personal education, which is achieved by ideology of education, and personal settings. In the author’s opinion, modern education system of China, referring to the philoso-phy of Confucius, sees it not only traditional values orientation, but also value-regulatory installation, which are relevant to the modern system of educa-tion and training. The author believes that Confu-cius’ philosophical culture nowadays is one of the indicators in the process of the concept formation of the modernization of education in China.

Abstract:

The present article introduces eight empirically-tested concepts that guide the crealectic practice of philosophical counseling: philosophical health, deep listening, the Creal, the possible, imparadisation, deep orientation, eudynamia , and mental heroism. The crealectic framework is grounded on a process-philosophy axiom of absolute possibility and continuous cosmological and cosmopolitical creation, termed "Creal". The approach also posits that there are three complementary modes of intelligence, namely analytic, dialectic, and crealectic, the balance of which is necessary to live a healthy human life. Beyond what is physically possible and psychologically possible, an underestimated force of social and personal deployment is the philosophical possible . In a context of personal counseling and philosophical care, the crealectic approach endeavors to slowly connect the patient to a field of harmonious and generative potentiality termed eudynamia.

But also inner-philosophical problems demand re-orientation. This has tobe of interest for theology, too, as freedom is at the core of Christian self-understanding and theological explication

The national affiliation of the philosopher is determined not by the geographical terrain of his residence, not by the language of the publication of works, not by his favor to a certain philosophical tradition, but above all by the spirit of ethnic consciousness, which with the need to be seen in the content of his writings, their thematic orientation, in the style of philosophizing, the practical orientation of his creative heritage - the desire to help their people in historical self-determination, in its social progress.

Also, some substructures in the BCC-algebras with apartness that have no counterparts in the classical case and which appear as products of the chosen logical environment such as co-ideals are analyzed. At the end, two different results that can be viewed as the isomorphism theorem in for BCC-algebras are exposed.

Full text

Abstract:

Based upon the analysis of E. Fromm’s philosophical ideas the problem of man’s choice of the system of universal orientation is considered in interrelation with the individual development of the subject. The article shows the principal impossibility of personal growth with no regard to the ontological imperative foundations of human existence.In the work the concepts of “religiosity” and “faith” are being distinguished and deconstructed. For this purpose, the concept of “faith” is taken out of the traditionally religious context and is shown as the subject’s inner orientation modus in relation to the overall integrity. Systems of orientation diﬀer in the scale and capability of realization of human creativity in relation to the surrounding world and oneself. The choice of system depends on the personal maturity and the individual’s readiness to perceive yet implicit levels of being. Philosophical faith thus provides an opportunity to reveal the hidden, implicative orders of existence, and the human spirit is viewed upon as an active beginning to fulﬁll these new ontological dimensions into life.Conclusions are made about the correlation of human inner growth with the number of dimensions of being that can be embraced, processed and integrated. Switching to another center of orientation becomes possible only if profound changes take place in the whole person. This kind of “personal growth” requires not only understanding, but also inner strength. In this case, a higher and more productive form of understanding and orientation can give liberation from its lower form.

Abstract:

Much psychological research on argumentation focuses on persuasion and pragmatics. However, one strand investigates how average people understand the nature of knowledge and knowing, and how these epistemological orientations underlie skilled argumentation. The research reviewed addresses the question whether the normative emphasis of the philosophical epistemological approach to argumentation matches psychological findings. The empirical research reviewed concerns the relationship between personal episte- mological understanding and three aspects of argument: argument construction, identification of informal reasoning fallacies, and orientation toward explanation or evidence. Findings suggest that people develop an epistemological approach toward argumentation in which beliefs about knowledge justification requirements are related with skilled argumentation.

In this article I consider philosophical inquiry as an ethical enactment for material change. I do so by situating philosophical inquiry as a type of virtuous practice, animated by an ethical determination to generate material difference. I thus place a large degree of theoretical emphasis on the Foucauldian notions of practice, virtue, and enactment as a means to recognize the open-ended, process-based orientation of such work. Through the course of this article I extend my argument to challenge conventional inquiry practices in education as a means to generate different, more immanently situated, effects.

Abstract:

Cognition is an integral part of a person’s orientation in the world. It is studied by different sciences – philosophy, sociology, pedagogics, and psychology. In information society, the role of cognition and the ways it is realized are becoming extremely important. Cognitive activity is an essential part of cognition. It is formed and developed in the process of education. Cognitive activity is traditionally regarded as a special kind of mental activity. There are different components of cognitive activity and levels of its development. The higher the level of cognitive activity is, the more efficient the whole process of education is as knowledge is acquired more quickly and at a higher level. Cognitive independence combined with cognitive activity can radically improve the whole process of cognition. Thus, the task of an educational process is to activate cognition and develop cognitive independence by different methods and approaches.

Abstract:

The most powerful thing about the literature on future-oriented education is what it tells us about our orientation to the present. This article explores some of the key ideas of future orientation that show the importance of both the present and, in particular, the presence of the teacher. The contributions of science fiction and of Albert Camus are explored to support this analysis and to generate some practical philosophical approaches to making sense of the present in an absurd world.

Abstract:

AbstractIn his treatises A Defence of Common Sense (1925), Proof of an External World (1939), and Certainty (1941), G.E. Moore wanted to put an end to the modern doubts about the certainty of reality and the ‘external world’ by pointing to the undeniable plausibilities of ‘empirical propositions,’ such as ‘I know that this is my hand’ or ‘I know that the earth had existed before my body was born.’ Wittgenstein, who was intensely grappling with Moore’s proofs during the last one and a half years before his expected death, still questioned these proofs and countered them with his concept of language games – including a different logic of the ‘connection with reality.’ Philosophically, he thereby left many loose ends in all places and admittedly a ‘gap’ between them, which he was no longer able to close. But he prepared for closing the gap by means of his concept of orientation, which he had initiated in his Philosophical Investigations without defining it in this term. In a new interpretation of On Certainty from the perspective of the Philosophy of Orientation, this paper tries to show how the attention to the phenomenon of orientation and the language game in which it is expressed can close this gap and thus carry on Wittgenstein's late philosophy to a certain point.

Abstract:

This paper deals with the re-appraisal of Teacher Education and value re-orientation as they affect Nigeria educational system. Especially on the quality of teachers who implement government policies on education. References were made to good old days in Africa when morality, honesty and sincerity pervade everywhere unlike now that foreign culture has bastardized our value. The concept of value and value re-orientation was revisited to ascertain what is acceptable to Africans as a group of people which their education process should reflect.

Abstract:

This paper explores some of the crucial ontological implications of the psychoanalytic theory of sexuality in its Freudo-Lacanian orientation. As irreducible to different sexual practices and contents, the concept of sexuality obtains conceptual weight that makes it particularly relevant for philosophical ontological thinking. Starting from the hypothesis that something about sexuality is constitutively unconscious - that is to say, existing only in the form of the unconscious - the paper points at the singular short-circuit of the epistemological and ontological level which is at work in psychoanalytic theory, and which cannot be neglected in philosophical examination of the relation between knowledge and being.

Abstract:

Chinese organizational behavior is the product of history. In this paper, we propose an introduction to the philosophical bases of Chinese behavior. This introduction is contextualized and historically situated; then compared to Western thinking to ensure that its value for organizations is understood. We examine first the dominant Chinese philosophy schools and decode their possible meaning for managing organizations. In particular, such issues as organizational structure, leadership, emotions and time-orientation are discussed in reference to traditional values. The paper’s conclusion suggests that Chinese firms’ behavior can be better understood and studied by looking at their philosophical and historical roots.

Abstract:

In spite of many early observations and discussions, political and human situations have remained almost at crossroads. Hence, additional studies on human nature are needed to foster both social and structural transformations in human societies. The aim of this essay is to elucidate Sunnie Ododo's ideological stance in his play, Hard Choice with a view to suggesting a way of institutionalising value re-orientation for the much needed social advancement in all its ramifications. The study presents an existentialist perspective into the reading and understanding of Ododo's Hard Choice to underscore the lessons, which can be learnt from the piece of writing. The application of content analysis to the study provides an effective appreciation of the human nature vis - a - vis his existence, which is premised on freedom, choice and responsibility. The remainder of this paper is structured into introduction, theoretical framework, discussion and conclusion.

Abstract:

This article joins together recent work in rhetorical political analysis with methodological advances made in intellectual history to prospect a historical and linguistic approach to public reason and deliberation. It is offered as an alternative to currently dominant approaches that emphasise philosophical and normative understanding, especially those associated with the ‘deliberative turn’ in democratic theory. This alternative approach is developed by identifying two points of methodological divergence between a rhetorical and philosophical orientation to deliberation. First, a rhetorical approach will study standards of deliberation that are endogenous to a society instead of imposing them on the basis of one form of philosophical reason or another. Second, rhetorical analysis does not conceive of deliberation as consensus reached through non-coerced reflection but as the strategic deployment of shared linguistic resources in a context of contingently unfolding non-linguistic events.

Abstract:

The objective of this work is to present the Complex Hermeneutic-Phenomenological Approach as a research orientation based on two doctoral research papers. The justification for the development of this study lies in the opportunity to show how the Complex Hermeneutic-Phenomenological Approach addresses a phenomenon, ensuring no constraints, impositions or frameworks on pre-assumed bases. The Complex Hermeneutic-Phenomenological Approach takes Hermeneutics and Phenomenology as the philosophical orientation of the investigative process, in an inseparable perspective in which, a textualization and interpretation are developed in the light of the epistemology of Complexity, in search for understanding phenomena of human experience. We believe that this research can contribute with different educational areas interested on approaches that allow integration, interaction and dialogue between different knowledge as an opportunity for interlocution, interconnections and possibilities of interdisciplinary works, which can reflect on an a actions for a (re) construction of new vias to/for academic research.n

Full text

Abstract:

The article traces the orientation of ‘An Epiphany Tale’ (published in 1983) by George Mackay Brown on establishing and maintaining the contact with the reader through the development of multiple aesthetic and aural techniques that are rooted in the tradition of modernism, but expanding and transposing it to a considerable degree. Brown adopts a quasi-philosophical way of narrating a story that anticipates the contemporary existential, phenomenological and aesthetic theoretical insights. The aim of the discussion is to present the text’s semiotic patterns and relate them to the phonetic devices that contribute to what Garrett Stewart called the principle of evocalization. This helps to determine how Brown functionalizes the evoked soundscapes (as theorized by Schafer) and connects them with philosophical and anagogic orientation in reception so as to exploit the story’s thematic focus on a series of epiphanies that reveal the underlying semiotic and aesthetic aspects of ordinary existence. The short story reveals a variety of direct and indirect techniques that create an opposition between what is suggested of reality and what is demonstrated on the level of artistic, literary communication.

Abstract:

Individual differences and structures of social knowledge in ethical reasoning were examined with 234 graduate business school students to see, among other things, what would be the role of gender in ethical reasoning. Individuals bring a variety of psychological, philosophical, and ethical orientations to organizational life, challenging traditional managerial assumptions concerning appropriate responses to ethical dilemmas. Using quantitative and qualitative methods, this research demonstrated that the individual characteristics of gender, learning style, and personality characteristics are significantly more influential in the use of an ethic of care or an ethic of justice in ethical reasoning than are the structures of social knowledge. In this study, social knowledge was measured through the preference for an organic or mechanistic world view and a communitarian or consequentialist moral orientation.
