Between Existentialism and Anti-Existentialism

Abstract

The article is an evaluation of Pollock’s anti-existentialist argument and its place in the contemporary debates about Existentialism. We demonstrate that the main contemporary objections to Pollock’s Anti-Existentialism can be grouped into two argumentative directions: (1) Pollock’s supposed confusion of inner and outer truth (Fine, Speaks); (2) Pollock’s assumption that there is such state of affairs as Socrates’s not existing (Kroon). We also introduce an argument against Pollock`s crucial argumentative step against existentialism.

Due to the importance of responsibility to cultivate this trait in people, special attention is paid to educational methods.…”

“…Responsibility is a social skill that has been considered by psychologists (Genschow & Lange, 2022). In the meantime, Bondar (2022) has emphasized social responsibility, considered the human species as a social being, and stated that humans are constantly in contact with people in society. All of these contacts cultivate a sense of community and force people to build relationships and take full responsibility for their own lives.…”

The Philosophy of Ancient Culture in the Context of the Evolution of the States of European Culture: An Analysis of the Autonomy of Cultures

“…The point is that K. Jaspers's views are quite retrospective -from the point of view of a twentieth-century man, he looked back at history and realized the importance of transformations in this period. Their distinctive feature is the emphasis on the ethical development of the individual and the established philosophical ideas about the world (Bondar, 2022). In addition, it is about the interaction of philosophical cultures, in which ancient thought is only a separate element of the overall picture.…”
