Paul Ramsey, an American Protestant Christian Ethicist, before down of the birth of bioethics 1970, asserted that «Medical ethics today must, indeed, be 'casuistry'; it must deal as competently and exaustively as possible with the concrete features of actual moral decisions of life and death and medical care». Five years later, namely 1975, Albert Jonsen, to all well known American Bioethicist, explanes importance and necessity of «infraethics», having in mind casuistry, whose idea is literally ridiculed by the same Paul Ramsey. But it wasn't discouraging for Jonsens, because he himself, together with Sephen Toulmin, an American epistemologist, having both got into the harness, were introducing casuistry as the third alternative, along with ethics of care and ethics of virtues, to other classical ethical theories present in bioethics. According to them «a good casuistry (...) applies general principles to particular cases with discernment». Fundamentally meant as an inductive and narrative ethics, inspired by the Late Middle Ages and the Modern World casuistry of the Roman Catholic moral theology, casuistry couldn't escape from basic questions about its viability in bioethics, as it was the case with other ethical theories. First, how casuistry deals with bad historical legacy and defeat in its own court? Second, is casuistry an adequate method for bioethics? Third, can casuistry respond to challenges of secular morality – pluralism and relativism – that interweaves bioethical discourse? Fourth, how does casuistry deal with its opponents and critics? These are only some of many questions in this article whiche are looking for their answer.

Während für Hegel die Kunst die vergangene Stufe der Selbstproduktion des Geistes ist, bei Heidegger wird die Kunst als die der Metaphysik zugehörende Weise des hervorbringenden Entbergens des Seins, durch die Dichtung überwunden. Die Dichtung ist nicht mehr das-ins-Werk-Setzen der Wahrheit des Seins, sondern das sagende Stiften des Seins selbst, d.h. der Geschichte des anderen Anfangs. Sie ist sie das Rettende aus der Gefahr des die Unverborgenheit des Seins verstellenden Gestells. Sie ist das ursprüngliche Hervorbringen im Gegensatz zum technischen Herausfordern. Indem das seinsgeschichtliche Denken das ursprüngliche Verhältnis zum Sein selbst als das Hervorbringen denkt, vermeidet es die Identität der absoluten Produktion, aber bleibt in der Differenz zwischen dem Denken als dem Hervorbringenden und dem Sein als dem Hervorzubringenden, und somit auf dem Primat des Poietischen. Das Wesen der Technik als die Vollendung der Metaphysik aber läßt sich nicht durch die ursprüngliche Poiesis überwinden. Die Poiesis ist ein solches Verhältnis zum Sein, in welchem das Sein immer schon vom Denken vorausgesetzt ist. Das Voraussetzten des Seins enthüllt sich aber als das Verbergen des voraussetzungslosen Ursprungs des Seins. Der Ursprung selbst läßt sich in seiner Ursprünglichkeit nicht hervorbringen, sondern offenbart sich in seiner Wahrheit erst durch das ursprüngliche Denken.

This paper contains a description of research whose results allowed better understanding of the relation context’s influence on mental health of children as perceived through the eyes of early adolescents in various family, school and social dynamics as interactive systems in the Sarajevo Canton. 734 students enrolled in primary school senior classes (V-IX) were a part of this research which tried to determine the quality of family and school life, through the customized Questionnaires for weighting the family and school interactions, and self-evaluating their problems on a Youth Self Assessment Scale. The qualitative research was conducted on parents/caretakers and members of primary school managements included in the research (N=31), within the present social context. Only a fraction of results obtained through the aforementioned research (Badurina 2012) has been presented in this paper. The analysis of obtained results has been performed in relation to the general and specific aspects of the life quality and mental health of children in early adolescent age, and possibilities of early prevention within the Brofenbrenner's ecological integration model.
