Rodzinne uwarunkowania kompetencji hermeneutycznych

Abstract

This article discusses hermeneutic competences not only comprehensively, but also vertically and horizontally, emphasizing their family determinants in particular. In such a proposed set and arrangement of content it seems possible not only to isolate the essence of those competences, but also deepen their understanding, or even initiate a dialogue and a discussion about the need for and possibilities of their improvement and acquisition during academic education for social professions. The basis of hermeneutic competences is understanding oneself, another human being, and the world and their deep, humanistic sense manifests itself in the attitude towards an individual, realised in interactions; a broad spectrum of knowledge oscillating around certainty and uncertainty and between scientific knowledge and knowledge based on biographical experience or practical professional skills; a capability of deepened reflection, endurance and acceptance of reality, even if it is opaque and not always possible to plan for, and not persuading ourselves and others that that we have everything under control.
