Zlo i pluralnost: put Hane Arent do prvog dela knjige Život duha

Author(s): Jerome Kohn / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

Hana Arent je želela da shvati šta ljudi čine i kako to što čine utiče na svet oko njih, da li on time postaje bolji ili gori. Svet pri tom nije zemlja ili priroda, nego je to čovekov svet, tvorevina koja nastaje među muškarcima i ženama, tvorevina na koju neprekidno utiče sve ono što ljudi čine kako bi prosperirali i opstali, ali na koju utiče i način na koji ljudi razmišljaju dok pokušavaju da izađu na kraj sa svojim postojanjem.

Hana Arent o tradiciji i novim počecima

Author(s): Ágnes Heller / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

Počinjem sa Geteovim citatom jer mislim da ovaj poetičan aforizam osvetljava viziju istorije, politike i sveta Hane Arent. Da bi predupredili kritiku, odmah da kažem da znam da je metafora »građenja kuće« u filozofiji Arentove povezana sa radom odnosno stvaralaštvom, a ne sa delovanjem. U Geteovoj pesmi, međutim, ona se tiče obojeg, mada u paradoksalnom obliku, kao aporija. Gete govori da će svako ko je rođen graditi novu kuću – gradiće svoj vlastiti svet – i to je ona nova kuća koju će naslediti neko drugi a taj drugi će izmeniti kuću, iako je niko neće dovršiti, izgraditi.

Научният Еверест - мечта или реалност

Author(s): / Language(s): English,Bulgarian,Russian

The academic forum “Literature of the Recent Past (1944-1989)”, organized by the Faculty of Philology at the South West University, combined the efforts of literary theorists of several generations to reflect on that part of Bulgaria’s recent past which has already turned into history. However, this history has not been completed yet in a comprehensive and objective manner. The aim of the forum was to create the proper discourse in which the history of literary theory writing will be attributed a multifaceted pluralistic ring. The project was a part of the attempt to reveal the Bulgarian literary history not only from the point of view “the history of generals”, but from the perspective of cultural identity manifestations on a national scale.

Vrijednosti i sistem

Vrijednosti i sistem

Author(s): Tarik Haverić / Language(s): Bosnian

Nakon islamističkog atentata na redakciju pariškog satiričnog časopisa Charlie Hebdo, javni i medijski prostor zapadnih zemalja našao se doslovno zatrpan reakcijama. Ove reakcije ispreplele su se u neprohodnu šikaru koja sada onemogućuje kako pristup inicijalnom događaju tako i njegovo sagledanje s odstojanja. Dobra strana situacije jest što nas sprečava da donosimo ishitrene sudove; treba vjerovati da će se, kao i toliko puta dosad, barem one najekstremnije strasti smiriti, i da će stvari dobiti pravu mjeru… Nažalost, ništa ne navodi na pomisao da će takvih atentata u budućnosti biti manje, i da će društva, zapadna kako i islamska, na njih reagirati odmjerenije i s manje strasti. Cyber-prostor ne zaboravlja već pohranjuje, i uvijek će se naći izjava, citata, fotografija i video-snimaka koji mogu, ako ima volje, probuditi pamćenje i usijati atmosferu. Momenat koji živimo nije proizvod konjunkture, već element strukture, i radi se samo o tome da toga svi postanemo svjesni. Buka se neće stišati; odsad nadalje, globalna debata o građanskim vrijednostima, slobodi izražavanja, slobodi vjeroispovijesti i savjesti, granicama državne prisile i univerzalnosti ili partikularnosti liberalne demokratije vodit će se povišenim tonom. S reakcijom, dakle, ne vrijedi čekati. No kakofonija obeshrabruje, a dijapazon obuhvatnih teorija razrađenih u prethodna dva desetljeća (od “kraja povijesti” preko “sukoba civilizacija” do “propasti američkog carstva”) paralizira. U iskušenju smo da posegnemo za bilo kojom od njih, samo da bismo ukazali na važne elemente koji se u nju ne uklapaju; no to bi ipak bio više zbor o autorima teorija (Fukuyami, Huntingtonu, Galtungu…) nego o samom događaju. Mogli bismo, isto tako, poći od prvog utiska i zatim ga tematizirati s ciljem da izvučemo barem dva-tri poopštiva stava ili, ako se zvijezde poklope, čak i komadić vlastite teorije. Ipak, u sličnim problemskim kompleksima nije vjerovatno da postoje konačni odgovori. Stoga je ambicija ovog doprinosa znatno skromnija: da stavi težište na pitanja i makar donekle strukturira polje u kojem se ona postavljaju sa stanovišta liberalnih vrijednosti shvaćenih kao sistem.

Pomiędzy „aisthesis” a estetyką, czyli czego od niewidomych może się dowiedzieć estetyk

Pomiędzy „aisthesis” a estetyką, czyli czego od niewidomych może się dowiedzieć estetyk

Author(s): Agnieszka Gralińska-Toborek / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

Aesthetics, the field of philosophy, is understood as the science of aisthesis – the sensual cognition, but also as a reflection on beauty, art, experiences and criticism. In both cases, the esthetician can learn a lot from blind people, because their use of senses other than eyesight is peculiarly precise and even amazing for sighted people. The senses of hearing, smell and especially touch play a cognitive role, which is often forgotten today, particularly in times when they are separated from their sources or even prepared in an artificial way. Reflection on the perception of the world by blind people may lead to the conclusion that it is much more concrete and “more powerful” than the seeming world of sighted people as Johann Gottfried Herder noted in the eighteenth century. This causes problems for people who try to translate reality perceived mainly with the help of sight to the language of other senses. Understanding and feeling these kinds of cognition requires the efforts and, above all, it takes time.

Tradiție și modernizare în filosofia românească în secolul XX

Author(s): Mihaela Gligor,Ioan Dura,Ştefan Bolea,Claudiu Mesaroş,Ion Cordoneanu,Laurenţiu Gheorghe / Language(s): Romanian

Any reference to the Romanian philosophy of the 20th century must also contain details about its relationship with modernity / modernization. As everywhere in Europe, in Romania, modernity has produced a paradigm shift. This position expressed a certain way of thinking about philosophy in a modernizing society. This volume contains the works of the Panel entitled "Tradition and modernization in Romanian philosophy in the twentieth century", proposed and moderated by Mihaela Gligor, as part of the International Conference "Modernism, modernization, modernity. Historiographical and methodological perspectives", organized by the "George Baritiu" Institute of History of the Romanian Academy of Sciences and Babeș Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca, between October 13-15, 2021, within the Cluj Academic Days 2021.

Ubrzavanje stvarnosti

Author(s): Viktor Ivančić / Language(s): Croatian

„Šta je sa radnicima?!“ – vrisnuo je prije neki dan (14. travnja) naslov na portalu sarajevskog dnevnog lista Oslobođenje, s primjerenim zgražanjem što ga je dežurni urednički um naglasio upitnikom i uskličnikom. U tekstu, koji se bavi ekonomskim i socijalnim posljedicama pandemije, navodi se između ostaloga i izjava jednog „krajiškog privrednika“ koji kaže da „sad radnike treba pripaziti“: „Neka i poslodavci odriješe kesu, ako imaju stan u Gracu, vikendicu u Opatiji, neka nešto prodaju i prebrode krizu…“

Značaj moralnih i stručnih kriterija za imenovanje i napredovanje

Author(s): Meliha Dugalija / Language(s): Bosnian

Na službenoj web-stranici Visokog sudskog i tužilačkog vijeća BiH (VSTV), u dijelu kojim se informira javnost o imenovanju kandidata na neku od pravosudnih funkcija, može se pročitati sljedeća formulacija: „Pri donošenju Odluke o imenovanju, VSTV BiH je uzeo u obzir kriterije poput: stručnog znanja, radnog iskustva i radnih rezultata; stručne sposobnosti zasnovane na dosadašnjim rezultatima u karijeri; sposobnosti da nepristrano, savjesno, marljivo, odlučno i odgovorno obnaša dužnosti u okviru funkcije za koju se prijavljuje; odnosa sa radnim kolegama, ponašanja van posla i profesionalne nepristranosti.Pri imenovanju, VSTS BiH primjenjuje odgovarajuće ustavne odredbe kojima se uređuju jednaka prava i zastupljenost konstitutivnih naroda i ostalih te poštuje ravnomjernu zastupljenost spolova.“ Na osnovu toga se može pretpostaviti da VSTV zahtijeva posjedovanje visoko stručnih i moralnih osobina za napredovanje i imenovanje u profesionalnoj karijeri i da u pogledu procedura raspolaže efikasnim mehanizmom koji osigurava takva imenovanja.

Izbori i etički principi – prijedlog unaprijeđenja etičkog postupanja organa za sprovođenje izbora u Crnoj Gori

Author(s): Not Specified Author / Language(s): Montenegrine

Prateći odredbe člana 32 Zakona o izboru odbornika i poslanika i usvojene Strategije za borbu protiv korupcije i organizovanog kriminala za period 2010- 2014, Državna izborna komisija je na sjednici održanoj 20. decembra 2010. godine, donijela Etički kodeks organa za sprovođenje izbora u Crnoj Gori (u daljem tekstu: Etički kodeks). Posljedično, Etički kodeks je stekao status pravnog akta nakon zvaničnog objavljivanja. Etički kodeks organa za sprovođenje izbora podijeljen je u četiri poglavlja: Poglavlje I – Opšte napomene kojim se definišu primjena, cilj i sadržaj kodeksa; Poglavlje II – Principi kodeksa koji uređuju oblast dužnosti i zabrane članova organa za sprovođenje izbora; Poglavlje III – Nadzor nad sprovođenjem kodeksa; i Poglavlje IV – Završne odredbe. Sadržaj donijetog Etičkog kodeksa u većoj mjeri zadovoljava evropske izborne standarde. Ali, karakteriše ga parcijalna limitiranost u sadržinskom smislu što rezultira u pojedinim poglavljima nedovoljnom razrađenošću opštih postulata na kojima počiva profesionalni obrazac ponašanja, standardi i principi rada članova Državne izborne komisije Crne Gore (DIK), opštinskih izbornih komisija (OIK) i biračkih odbora (BO). Ovaj nedostatak posebno je vidljiv u odredbama koje se odnose na redefinisanje cilja kodeksa, uvođenje načela i vrijednosti, i upotpunjavanje u dijelu nadzora nad sprovođenjem kodeksa. U strukturalnom smislu, Etički kodeks je, takođe, u većoj mjeri adekvatno i primjereno uređen, pokrivajući skoro sve oblasti (primjena, cilj i sadržaj, dužnosti i zabrane članova organa za sprovođenje izbora, nadzor nad sprovođenjem kodeksa, završne odredbe) radi stvaranja efikasnog i efektivnog mehanizma poštovanja pravila ponašanja propisanih njihovim nadležnostima. Međutim, gotovo istovjetno kao i u sadržinskom smislu, i u strukturalnom kontekstu Etički kodeks demonstrira određene praznine koje bi trebalo popuniti uvođenjem novog poglavlja koje se prevashodno odnosi na „obaveze upoznavanja sa sadržajem Kodeksa svih članova organa koji stupaju na dužnost.“ U konačnici, analiza Etičkog kodeksa u suštinskom smislu ukazuje da je izborni etički kodeks svrsishodan i vrijednosno utemeljen u sadržinskom i strukturalnom okviru posljedično obezbjeđujući u većoj mjeri konkretna i kredibilna pravila ponašanja za članove organa za sprovođenje izbora. No, uočljivi su određeni sadržinski nedostaci, konceptualne i strukturalne manjkavosti koje bi trebalo riješiti u nastupajućem periodu.

Fourth estate conscience - Self-regulation of media in Montenegro

Author(s): Duško Vuković,Daliborka Uljarević / Language(s): English

All media and journalists in Montenegro have unique code of ethics, adopted in 2002 and amended in 2015, but there is no single self-regulatory body at the level of the entire media community that takes care of respect of ethics. Part of the media, local and national, has founded the Media Council for Self-Regulation (MCSR) in 2012, and in the same year, a group of local print media established their own self-regulatory council. One private television with national coverage (TV Vijesti), two daily newspapers (Vijesti and Dan) and one weekly (Monitor) opted for ombudsmen as a form of self-regulation. The National Public Media Service RTCG, which is a member of the MCSR, also has its Commission for applications and complaints of listeners and viewers, as a body of the RTCG Council. In last years, a tendency of violation of professional standards and ethics has been noticeable in Montenegro.

Russia in the global ‘vaccine race’

Author(s): Iwona Wiśniewska,Jadwiga Rogoża / Language(s): English

During the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, Moscow has stepped up its activities in the global‘ vaccine race’ against SARS-CoV-2. So far Russia has registered two vaccines, which was announced by President Vladimir Putin himself. The presentation of Sputnik V, which the Russian government has branded as the ‘world’s first vaccine’, caused controversy from the very start, for both medical (as the clinical trial procedure was not completed) and ethical reasons (forcing ‘volunteers’ to take part in the tests). Foreign specialists, alongside the Russian medical community and the Russian public, have expressed scepticism about the insufficiently tested preparation. Despite this, the government is planning to carry out a mass campaign of public vaccination using Sputnik V and export this vaccine, mainly to developing countries.

Globalna gospodarska kriza zahtijeva globalni etos

Globalna gospodarska kriza zahtijeva globalni etos

Author(s): Hans Küng / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Uz pomoć novog svjetskog gospodarskog etosa iz krize? Moj načelni odgovor odmah na početku: zasigurno ne samo sa svjetskim gospodarskim etosom, ali jednako tako zasigurno ne bez svjetskog gospodarskog etosa. Štoviše, naše je mišljenje ovo: Upravo svjetska gospodarska kriza zahtijeva svjetski gospodarski etos! Sve većem broju ljudi je jasno: Većina je suvremenih kriza – od svjetske financijske krize do krize europskog nogometa – povezana i s elementarnim etičkim standardima, pa kao što nogomet treba pravila koja će vrijediti globalno, tako i gospodarstvo. Naravno, mi, koji se zauzimamo za svjetski gospodarski etos, poznajemo prigovore skeptika i onih zloslutnika, koji deklaracije ove vrste nazivaju beskorisnim. No, ja postavljam pitanje: Što bi bio svijet bez Opće deklaracije ljudskih prava ili povelja Ujedinjenih naroda ili jednako tako Dekaloga? Uvijek se iznova djeluje protiv njih, i utoliko je svaki etos protu-faktičan. No, etičke norme uvijek iznova oblikuju znakove upozorenja protiv neljudskosti i zločina, stvarajući ujedno motivaciju za političko, socijalno i ekonomsko djelovanje – u danim prilikama također i protiv moćnih zasebnih interesa i kolektivnih egoizama nacionalnih i internacionalnih poduzeća.

Nastavni materijali uz nastavnu cjelinu - Svjetski etos u osnovnim školama

Author(s): / Language(s): Bosnian

Na ovom se mjestu nalaze nastavni materijali potrebni za realizaciju nastavne cjeline "Svjetski etos u osnovnim školama" iz "Priručnika svjetskog etosa za osnovne škole". Nastavni materijali - priče, molitve, debatske kartice, kvizovi, deklaracije... - poredani su tako da prate strukturu dotične nastavne cjeline odnosno strukturu nastavnih jedinica od kojih se ona sastoji. Podsjećamo da se nastavna cjelina "Svjetski etos u osnovnim školama" sastoji od osam nastavnih jedinica: 1. Ljudskost: temeljni poziv svakog čovjeka 2. Uzajamnost: „zlatno pravilo“ u sferi ljudskoga 3. Kultura nenasilja i strahopoštovanja pred svekolikim životom 3.1. Mirotvorstvo – Nenasilje – Pomirenje 3.2. Ekologija: susretište vjerničke i građanske odgovornosti 3.3. Vršnjačko nasilje 4. Kultura solidarnosti i pravednog ekonomskog poretka 5. Kultura tolerancije i života u istinoljubivosti 6. Kultura ravnopravnosti i partnerstva muškarca i žene 7. Svjetski etos kao platforma izrade razrednog i školskog etosa 8. Dijalog religija: nužan prilog svjetskom miru i blagostanju - a svaka nastavna jedinica od: A. Teorijske pozadine B. Motivacije C. Scenarija. U svrhu lakšeg snalaženja rubovi stranica s nastavnim materijalima označeni su baš onim bojama kojim su označeni rubovi stranica odgovarajućih nastavnih jedinica u "Priručniku svjetskog etosa za osnovne škole". Dakako, prezentirani nastavni materijali nisu obvezujuće prirode. Nastavnicima je ostavljena puna sloboda koristiti se ne samo drugim tekstovima nego i drugim metodama za podučavanje učenika. S obzirom na književno, religiozno, glazbeno, dakle općenito kulturno bogatstvo naše zemlje, pa i regije, to ne bi smjelo predstavljati nikakav problem.

Neo-Confucian Ethics and Economic Development in East Asia: From the Perspective of Confucian Modernity and Political Democracy

Neo-Confucian Ethics and Economic Development in East Asia: From the Perspective of Confucian Modernity and Political Democracy

Author(s): Yuxin Zhang / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

It is a theoretical and practical difficulty to re-examine the relationship between Confucianism and modernization in the era of "cultural globalization" and "postmodern". This study claims that the connection between Confucianism and modernization is determined by the continuity of social development and the historical inheritance of culture, based on the historical perspective and the enlightenment spirit of Confucianism. Even at the start of East Asia's modernization, Confucianism's Tradition never entirely faded from history, and Confucianism's involvement in the transformation of East Asian countries from tradition to modernity is obvious. From East Asia's authoritarian politics to Asian-style democracy, East Asia's political democracy is a shadow of Confucianism rather than a carbon duplicate of Western democracy. The new Confucian ethics has its own logic, emphasizing the importance of the self in all sorts of relationships, as well as the sense of obligation, self-control, self-cultivation, consensus, and cooperation. It places a great importance on politeness and education. It is mostly concerned with the credit community and government leadership. The "new Confucian ethics" incorporated some western principles into its ethical structure, resulting in the formation of a new modernity: East Asian industrial civilization, which aided East Asia's economic prosperity. Indeed, Confucian principles have shaped Chinese merchant culture and spirit in both traditional and modern periods, and the birth and shift of new ideas in Confucianism have the potential to disrupt the tradition. Confucianism will confront greater obstacles as well as more development prospects as society develops and there is more interaction, communication, and dialogue among many cultures around the world. Therefore, this paper presents the close relationship between the Neo-Confucian Ethics and the rise of Asia from the perspective of the modernity of the Confucian tradition in East Asia and Asian political democracy. Neo-Confucian Ethics has shaped Asia's industrial civilization, and Asia's economic development is consistent with the philosophical theory inherent in Confucian ethics.

The Indispensability of Science and Morality for the Sustainability of Nations

The Indispensability of Science and Morality for the Sustainability of Nations

Author(s): Alin Boloca / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The proposition that science and morality are indispensable for the sustainability and prosperity of nations is an idea that finds broad support in academic and theological circles. The centrality of science to the advancement of our societies is self-evident, as the technological innovations that have arisen from scientific inquiry have enabled us to solve some of our most pressing challenges. However, the importance of morality is equally salient, as it provides a moral compass for our actions and decisions. In the absence of such ethical guidance, the fruits of scientific endeavor may result in unethical practices that ultimately cause harm to individuals and society as a whole. Thus, it is imperative that we continue to accord both science and morality the respect and attention they deserve, recognizing that they are fundamental to our pursuit of progress, prosperity, and sustainability.

ЕТИЧКА ПИТАЊА (ДИЛЕМЕ) И МОГУЋИ УТИЦАЈ ПРАВИЛА ЕТИЧКОГ ПОНАШАЊА НА КВАЛИТЕТ РАДА РАЧУНОВОЂА И РЕВИЗОРА

Author(s): Dragan Kulina / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

The main purpose of the research presented in this paper is to contribute to the incresed knowledge about the importance of ethics in the accounting profession in terms of the impact on the quality of the work of accountants and auditors. Consistent following of the principles of reliability, transparency and accuracy when preparing and auditing financial reports is a prerequisite for achieving the required level of quality of these services. In this sense, the paper tries to find a connection between the appropriate ethical behavior of professional accountants and auditors and overcoming (removing) ethical dilemmas that arise in practice. Under ethical behavior is considered moral behavior, i.e. objective, independent, competent, correct and honorable behavior in professional and business relations. The research used the methodology of a qualitative systematic review of carefully selected literature, which includes published scientific papers, books in the field of accounting, auditing and management, as well as professional regulations. In this way, a basis was formed that guarantees the quality of the evidence on which the findings and conclusions presented in the paper are based. Our findings indicate that there are numerous moral and ethical dilemmas that can significantly affect the quality of accounting records and financial statements. They can only be overcome by the strict application of ethical principles and standards, as this is a guarantee for obtaining reliable financial information. This is supported by the fact that the last two decades were marked by the bankruptcy of several multinational companies that, among other things, misrepresented the position in their financial reports and committed financial fraud. Unfortunately, individuals from the accounting profession were also involved in those dishonest actions. That is why special attention is paid to the analysis of the role of accountants and auditors in major financial scandals and financial frauds. The general conclusion is that the professional and personal ethical values of accountants and auditors are very important for overcoming ethical dilemas that arise in practice, which, if not properly removed, can negatively affect the reputation of the accounting profession.

The Ethics of Borrowing in the Vision of Charles Haddon Spurgeon

The Ethics of Borrowing in the Vision of Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Author(s): Iosif Anca / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Recognizing the vulnerabilities of debtors, C. H. Spurgeon, through his rich imagination, wanted to offer a model of good practice that rejects any lending that is not fully covered by the borrower's financial possibilities or material assets. In doing so, he sought to draw attention to the risks that those who resort to such practices run and the inappropriateness of excuses for those who can no longer pay the debts they have incurred. Spurgeon argues that financial ignorance and immaturity cost enormously when one resorts to borrowing. On the other hand, this paper will investigate Spurgeon's openness to forms of borrowing that do not involve any further cost except gratitude or thanksgiving. The analysis will focus on how he approached God's grace given to humanity, but also on His great work in creation or in our fellow man, in which he considered that we find an inexhaustible source of resources that one can borrow without fear of having something to lose.

The Concept of Eros in Plato's Philosophy and the Concept of Agape in Christian Thought

The Concept of Eros in Plato's Philosophy and the Concept of Agape in Christian Thought

Author(s): Corneliu Ben Buzguța / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This paper delves into the philosophical underpinnings and theological significance of the concepts of Eros and Agape, exploring their origins, and implications in their respective contexts. In examining Plato's dialogues "Symposium" and "Phaedrus," the fundamental aspects of Eros in his philosophy are investigated, discussing its enduring influence and relevance today. Following this, the concept of Agape in Christian thought is explored, focusing on its presentation in the New Testament and the innovative perspectives it brought to the understanding of love. Key aspects of Agape love in Christian thought are identified, illustrating how Agape reconsiders religious and moral values, transforming traditional thinking. The paper concludes by discussing the opposition and similarities between Eros and Agape, emphasizing that interdisciplinary research on love is prolific and remains open to new avenues of investigation. Both concepts challenge individuals to transcend immediate desires and embrace a more expansive vision of love, encompassing personal growth and selfless devotion. The ongoing dialogue between Eros and Agape continues to enrich our understanding of love and its role in the human experience, providing practical guidance for living a life grounded in love, wisdom, and compassion.eros, agape, Plato, Christian thought, love

Fundamental Aspects of Christian Ethics

Fundamental Aspects of Christian Ethics

Author(s): Emanuel Dobrin / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Humanity and ethics seem to be synonymous. Wherever human existence is discussed, wherever the relations developed between different social categories are explored, ethics become imperative. The source of ethical standards is also important, leading sociology to confirm the existence of countless ethical systems, each claiming to meet human needs. These include Christian ethics, which considers man to be more valuable than other ethical systems portray, and his value is ontologically given through creation. As a result, occupying such a significant place in the universe, man needs moral rules that respect his fundamental rights and provide support during crises and needs. The present article is a brief foray into the perimeter of Christian ethics, highlighting some aspects that define this system and presenting arguments in its favor. The argument is justified, as human society is in a constant search for an ethic that benefits each individual. The present discussion has a general footprint, offering only a few of the comprehensive multitude of the Christian ethical system meant to open the way for easy communication between different ethicists.
