Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Mary Wollstonecraft on the imagination
2017
The article compares Rousseau’s and Wollstonecraft’s views on the imagination. It is argued that though Wollstonecraft was evidently influenced by Rousseau, there are significant differences between their views. These differences are grounded in their different views on the faculty of reason and its relation to the passions. Whereas Rousseau characterizes reason as a derivative faculty, grounded in the more primary faculty of perfectibility, Wollstonecraft perceives reason as the faculty defining human nature. It is argued that contrary to what is often assumed, Wollstonecraft’s conception of the imagination is not primarily characterized by its Romantic features, but rather by the close af…

Koncepcje uznania w perspektywie pedagogiki ogólnej jako alternatywa wobec neoliberalnej wizji współczesnego świata
2018
Najważniejszym zadaniem, jakie stoi przed jednostką, jest praca nad własną tożsamością - jest ona jednocześnie przejawem samorealizacji i wolności współczesnego człowieka. Uznanie jako intersubiektywna relacja między ludźmi jest warunkiem naszej tożsamości. Wspólnota oparta na relacjach uznania to alternatywa dla nieoliberalnej koncepcji społecznej. Intersubiektywne relacje uznania tworzą się według Axela Honnetha w trzech sferach: w sferze relacji intymnych (rodzina, bliscy ludzie, znaczący inni), w sferze prawa oraz w sferze gospodarki. Mamy więc trzy obszary, w których w relacji z innymi budujemy swoją tożsamość: rodzinę, prawo i gospodarkę wraz z rynkiem pracy. Społeczne relacje uznania…
