Pragmatist Meanings of Personal Development

Summary/Abstract: Over time, a string of interrogations, questions, thematizations in relation to the human being were created. At the heart of these interrogations is a context in which several solutions to the development of the human being coexist. All these assumptions are to restore human authenticity. Our human condition is born from contact with alterity. Being in the world represents a state of openness, i.e., an ontological hypostasis containing its own existential structures. Becoming as experience can be understood as a continuous process of change and permanence. Concrete facts of experience designate transcendental features of the ideal of human development. In the pragmatist context they are found in a whole: experience and education, education and thinking, thinking and knowledge. In order for the human being to have valuable experience, he must think about the value of the means by which he will achieve his or her purpose, as well as the likely consequences that will result from this experience. Thinking is in itself the method of an educational experience. The educational environment, in line with the vision of the representatives of pragmatist philosophy, must provide real situations that require thinking. States of authenticity can be considered as creative experiences or experiences of the human being. The meanings of the states of authenticity of the human being are rendered, implicitly by the ethical dominance, manifesting itself as metaphysical desire by the others.
