Ökofeminizmus

Author(s): Ariel Salleh / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 25/2019

Ecological feminism is sometimes understood as a subset of social ecology. This is true in as much as ecofeminism addresses the interaction of social and natural processes. However, it would be false to suggest that ecofeminism derives from social ecology, or from deep ecology, or eco-Marxism [Chapter 6]. Ecological feminism is sui generis; its first premise being that society–nature relations in the dominant global economy are fundamentally sex-gendered in both material and ideological senses. In this respect, ecofeminism takes a methodological quantum leap beyond other political frameworks. Ecofeminism is also distinct from liberal and socialist feminisms, since these perspectives focus rather uncritically on the pursuit of equality. Ecofeminists are not looking for an equal slice of a toxic pie. Attention to the positive and negative implications of sex-gender difference is prioritised by ecofeminists, before attending to an equality that simply reinforces Eurocentric masculinist values as the universal norm. Likewise, respect for the principle of difference as cultural autonomy joins ecofeminism and postcolonial concerns. Further, the framing of liberal and socialist feminisms has been anthropocentric, whereas ecofeminism is oriented towards oikos and the interconnection of all life on Earth.

Основанията на науката в изследванията на руския учен Вячеслав Семьонович Стьопин

Author(s): Nikoleta Mihaleva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2021

The focus of the article is a philosophical and methodological reflection of V.S. Styopin on three main components of the foundations of science: ideals and norms of scientific research, the scientific picture of the world and the philosophical foundations of science. Each of them, in turn, has a rather complex internal structure. Therefore, the task of the article is not limited to the development of perceptions of these three "blocks" of foundations, which has been thoroughly achieved by a number of authors, including Styopin, but mainly to what extent these grounds express important values and goals and dimensions of science.

Артефакти 1. Дефиниция

Author(s): Serghey Gherdjikov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2021

In this paper I present a definition of artifact based on cases of philosophical and scientific use: anthropogenic abiotic virtual or real object with meaning and/or function. This definition is proposed in a new dimension: real–virtual, which purports to replace the classical opposition material–ideal as a better way of defining what an artifact is. I consider as virtual here not only digital simulations, but all sign forms. I show that my definition works better in explaining artifacts. I follow empirical science as a technique of studying artifacts, and subscribe to the anthropological paradigm.

Forgiveness as a method of (self)healing: a procedural-psychological analysis

Author(s): Narcisa Loredana Posteuca-Esi / Language(s): English Issue: 14/2020

Modern psychological approaches include forgiveness as a landmark in the healing process, considering that its benefits do not resume to mind comfort, but it also address to emotional, relational, social and general health issues. Therefore, this paper aims to analyze the role of forgiveness as a coping mechanism, but also as a major focus point when dealing with healing strategies. This analytic approach intends to offer a clarified overview concerning the dimensions that forgiveness enact in human life, but also its role and functions within the acceptance – rebalance – reconciliation strategies. Moreover, incorporating this concept in guided healing and self-healing depends on the experimental evidences, but also on a good understanding forgiveness as a process, but also as a final or intermediary objective in therapy is required.

The professions in the economic field, especially accounting, belong to an area where most of the activities are suitable for digitalization, and more and more companies are interested to move towards efficiency in this segment in order to benefit by reducing the costs for obtaining the highest possible performance. The special current context, namely the health crisis caused by the Covid pandemic transformed immediately afterwards into a global economic crisis, has attracted countless restrictions on population movement while social distancing has led the business and political environment to put a special emphasis on digitalization. In is well known and no longer stranger for anyone that repetitive actions in a company should be replaced by automated processes, so as to reduce the inevitable human errors, but also to make the activity as efficient as possible. The use of technology and digitalization does not mean that the professions of economists, accounting experts, will disappear and be replaced by technology. On the contrary, their role will be transformed into the voice of experts who makes checks and gives advice to entrepreneurs, an expert who will be relieved by technology of repetitive tasks.Digitization will lead to major changes so that the activities carried out by professionals in the economic field will be interdependent with the use of sophisticated computer systems and artificial intelligence to analyze, report and develop the desired results. The need for digital skills for students with economic profile is essential for their integration into the labor market.

PSYCHOPEDAGOGICAL INTERVENTION ON PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS SUBJECT TO PHYSICAL ABUSE

Author(s): Gabriela Balan / Language(s): English Issue: 15/2021

A novelty of this research is the study of early childhood abuse. The fight to eliminate physical abuse in the school environment must start from the first level of placing the child in this environment, respectively from the young school age. The important scientific problem solved lies in the change of the attitude of the parents and teachers towards the physically abused child, but also in the establishment of the psychotherapeutic methods of working with them. The causes of physical abuse are numerous because abuse is a complex phenomenon, and the literature mainly reveals the abnormal behaviors of parents, poor parent-child relationships and problematic families. Very often we meet children who belong to disorganized families and / or with a disadvantaged socio-economic level. Any attack on the child's health, physical abuse, regardless of its form, affects all areas of psychological functioning of the child (intellectual, emotional, volitional, interpersonal), not only causes physical damage, but also negatively affects the child's overall development, his relationships with other people, school performance.

The influence of bilingualism on students' creativity

Author(s): Adriana-Ioana MARUSEC (ZEBRENIUC) / Language(s): English Issue: 13/2020

The ascendancy of the bilinguals over the monolinguals in expressing creative potential (Ricciardelli, 1992; Cushen, Wiley, 2011; Lee, Kim, 2010) is verified also for the language pair Ukrainian/Romanian, the present research considered seeking to identify the nature of the connection between bilingualism and creativity in the case of high school students, half of them native Ukrainian (speaking Romanian and Ukrainian) and half monolinguals (Romanian) that were the same age. Other checked variables were: the geo-residential zone, the scholar environment, gender structure of the compared samples. Secondly, it was established both the way that differences of the creative potential are connected with the biological gender of the subjects, and the effects of interaction between the two independent variables. To measure the creative potential The Battery of Creative Thinking Tests (Stoica, Caluschi, 2006) was used. The results showed that bilinguals had better performances at all estimated elements: fluency, flexibility, originality and elaboration. The gender variable has an impact, but more limited and particular, that the linguistic one: girls prove creative potential for the elaboration’s dimension, while boys are better to the dimension of fluency and ideation. Also results prove that, in case of combination between bilingualism and biological gender, influences are manifested only in elaboration. Therefore, both bilingual and monolingual girls use more details in their works, taking their bearing more in idea development and being more creative on this field, comparing to bilingual, respectively monolingual boys.

THE CONCEPT OF JUSTICE IN REFERENCE WITH PHILOSOPHIES OF PLATO AND ARISTOTLE: A CRITICAL STUDY

Author(s): Sooraj Kumar Maurya / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2021

The concept of justice has been a constant issue since its conception. The Greeks also attempted to define justice. They have observed justice as goodness in deeds and so a virtue. In the Greek mind, fairness was an attribute of the spirit or soul, while injustice was a sin. Both Plato and Aristotle defined justice as kindness as well as a desire to follow the law. It alluded to the connection between rights and duties. In human interactions, justice was the pinnacle of excellence and the attitude that animates folks in the right fulfillment of their responsibilities. The development of harmony and peace in thinking and conduct was pre-eminently social. In the same way, Aristotle's and Plato's fairness are complementary; both philosophers seek to discover a concept of ability by which unity, harmony, virtue, and pleasure may be produced in a community. Despite this shared agreement, they are fundamentally different in many ways. In this paper, an attempt has been made by the author to discuss the similarities and dissimilarities in theories of justice propounded by Plato and Aristotle.

Кантиански колебания около собствено философския метод

Author(s): Ivaylo Dimitrov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 4/2021

According to leading Kant scholars, in mid-1760s Kant realizes that his program for the reform of metaphysics cannot be developed by the method of conceptual analysis which he had previously considered to be more adequate than the synthetic method of the Wolffians that imitates the mathematical one. In this paper, I put into question the claim of a pre-Critical project of ‘analytical metaphysics’ by trying to show that even for the ‘pre-Critical’ Kant the proper method of metaphysics is genuinely synthetic, but the synthetic construction in question should have been prepared by a Critical and subsequent exhaustive analysis of key material-instrumental concepts of the peculiar philosophical science under question.

WHAT IS THE SCIENCE OF COMMUNICATION? A POSSIBLE DEFINITION

Author(s): Arthur Suciu / Language(s): English Issue: 16/2021

The article’s aim is to provide a definition of the science of communication together with the delimitation of the field of research and the identification of a general research method. The starting point is the general phenomenon of communication in the living world, as the research field of communication science is limited, by successive delimitations, to media discourses. The most important aspect that has been highlighted is the political nature of media speeches. Politics de-homogenizes the discursive mass and at the sometime provides a clear criterion for classifying discourses. Thus, insofar as communication is media-based, it is also a political communication.The science of communication is defined as the study of the phenomenon of integration and discursive distancing, in other words of the discursive competition and social negotiation. The starting point of the entire process of definition is the work“ Autonomous Discourse. Communication Strategies”(2013).

Thomas Hobbes’–Georg Hegel’s Ideas of Knowledge in Development Narratives and the Challenge of Human Security in Sub-Saharan Africa

Author(s): Felix Olatunji,Oni Adetunji / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

The understanding of Thomas Hobbes’s analysis on the importance of reason signifies the essence for the establishment of human capacity project, which will be rooted and reckoned with in the quest for the development of human thoughts. The quest for right reason in Hobbes is a necessary point in Georg Hegel, which stipulates reason as the determinant of development in Hegel’s dialectism that development can only be realised in union with the ultimate realisation of the Spirit as reason rules the world. This is the fact that the principle of development enables a being to produce and reproduce itself, and by making itself actually what it already was potentially. It is pertinent to understand from the outset the significance of knowledge-based society as the foundation for security in the quest towards the attainment of authentic development. This means that security of lives and property is founded on the establishment of adequate knowledge necessary for action. Thus, human security for development is based on the level, attainment and utilisation of knowledge in human society. This paper will, therefore, employ analytic methodology to thematise that human security is a conditio sine qua non in the attainment of authentic development among societies of the Global South particularly sub-Sahara Africa. It is expected that the intent of the paper will interrogate the extent and the ways human security would be struggled for, in order for development to be guaranteed, which would be premised and thematised from the stand-points of Hobbes and Hegel.

Ricoeur and Foucault on Tragedy and Truth

Author(s): Carlos Garduño Comparán / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

The purpose of this text is to confront some Paul Ricoeur’s and Michel Foucault’s significant reflections on Greek tragedy, in order to discuss their interpretation of its truth and the knowledge it makes possible. Ricoeur supposes that tragedy implies a theology that, though it is not explicitly developed, points to the knowledge of the self, his conflicts with others, and even to a possible redemption. For his part, Foucault determines that in tragedies a set of discourses opposing against each other is at stake, without the possibility of overcoming their conflict in a higher knowledge. Does tragedy allows knowledge through the spectacle and the emotions aroused? Is the truth of tragedy manifested in the confrontation and intensification of passions, but cannot be developed as knowledge of the self and his reconciliation with others?

Аналитика на афицируемостта: около проблема за феноменологическото несъзнавано

Author(s): Denitsa Nencheva,Desislav Georgiev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2022

The problem of the relationship between consciousness and unconsciousness has proved to be not only a neuralgic point in the interdisciplinary debates throughout the 20th century, but one which maintains its notable place in the present day. Taking the long and complex history of the encounters between Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis and Edmund Husserl's mature phenomenology as a theoretical background, the present paper offers a novel approach towards the consciousness/unconsciousness problem, situated within the peculiar sphere shaped by the dialogue between Freudian and Husserlian notions. What we offer is a preliminary sketch for an analytics of affectability that opens a path toward reexamining some key psychoanalytical concepts such as unconscious, repression and memory which can be a valuable contribution to the development of phenomenological conceptualizations of different forms of traumatic experience.

Смисълът на музиката

Author(s): Georgi Fotev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2022

Music has a double meaning. The musical meaning is specific immanent and constitutive for the musical work, taken in itself as without subject. The meaning of music is a connection between a piece of music (musical meaning) and the extra-musical human lifeworld. The musical meaning and the meaning of music are inseparable. The great forms of European music are modal, tonal, atonal and aleatory music. The transition from one form to another is a transformation of the immanent musical meaning and the meaning of music. They are historically determined. The meaning of music is possible thanks to isomorphism in the universe.
