EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AS A TRANSVERSAL COMPETENCE IN PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION: A DUAL-CONTOUR IMPLEMENTATION MODEL
Full text linkEducation today is compelled to operate under extreme conditions.
War, social uncertainty, and rapid digitalization dictate new rules: for a graduate,
"bare" theory is no longer sufficient; they require reliable psychological defense. That
is why this article proposes a fundamental re-examination of the role of emotional
intelligence (EI). We refuse to view it merely as an optional "soft skill." We argue
that it is a fundamental transversal competence, an internal mechanism that allows a
professional to remain effective even under the crushing pressure of uncertainty.
The research is grounded in a synthesis of approaches, combining the concepts
of abilities and competences. This allowed us to move away from dry descriptive
theory and create an effective analytical framework. The primary result of our work
is the author's dual-contour model of EI implementation. It functions not linearly, but
as a holistic two-level system. The first level is diagnostic-reflective. Here, we teach
the student to "activate" the cognitive core: to understand their own states and the
causes of emotions. However, understanding alone is insufficient. Therefore, the
second activity-based level transforms this internal resource into real action. Through
simulations and professional cases, emotional abilities are transformed into stable
skills of communication and team synergy.
The scientific novelty of the approach lies in bridging the gap between
"knowing about emotions" and the specialist's actual behavior. The model
synchronizes these processes into a unified system.
The practical value is evident: the proposed architecture serves as a ready-made
tool for updating programs in Specialty 015 "Vocational Education." This offers a
tangible way to replace educational formalism with the cultivation of a resilient
personality capable of acting consciously and effectively, regardless of the turbulence
in the surrounding world
The Plasticity of the Emotions: Puzzles in the Science of Emotion
Full text linkThe emotions is a topic at the forefront of study and research in philosophy, yet most studies focus on debates concerning the emotions and rationality, how emotions differ from feeling and sensation and whether there is a science of the emotions. Relatively overlooked, however, are the philosophical questions raised by the fact that our emotions develop and change over the course of a lifetime.
In The Plasticity of the Emotions: Puzzles in the Science of Emotion, Raamy Majeed examines this phenomenon via three questions: the plasticity of our emotions as they are shaped and reshaped over time; how best to accommodate recent findings about the neurobiological variability of emotion mechanisms; and how to categorise emotions in light of such variability. He argues that neither of the dominant explanatory frameworks — emotional modularity and emotional constructionism — adequately addresses these puzzles.
By integrating new insights from developmental research into philosophy of mind, cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience, Majeed proposes a novel perspective on emotional development and change, one that synthesises the best features of existing frameworks and solves some of the major puzzles. It will be of interest to those studying and researching the philosophy of emotion, philosophy of psychology, philosophy of mind and cognitive science
Paradoxes classification
No full textThis paper catalogues 103 philosophical paradoxes systematically addressed within the infinit-Unity (Worldology) framework, introducing a critical methodological distinction between **definitively solved paradoxes (42), appropriately absorbed paradoxes (45), and hybrid resolutions (16). This represents an honest reassessment of earlier work, reclassifying 16 paradoxes based on stricter methodological criteria. All resolutions were independently derived by the author (age 19, self-taught) during 2025-2026 without formal philosophical training.
Solved or hybrid paradoxes include: hard problem of consciousness (via Dual-Receiver Brain Model positing consciousness as fundamental substrate filtered through DMN/TPN systems), mind-body problem (complementary filtering framework eliminating interaction problem), unity-multiplicity paradox (0=1=infinit continuum showing unity at root with multiplicity at manifestation), free will vs. determinism (level-distinction: local determination coexists with global freedom), and 7-12+ novel self-created paradoxes testing framework boundaries. Absorbed paradoxes include reality/illusion distinctions (50% reality saturation ceiling), dream/wake boundaries, and moral relativism (universal meta-principles with relative applications).
Validation employed 270+ adversarial AI testing sessions (Claude 3-3.7, GPT-4, Gemini 1.5) explicitly instructed to find contradictions, yielding 99.8% measured internal coherence across 124,750 pairwise proposition comparisons. Public dissemination (1000+ downloads, 2 months) produced zero external contradictions. The framework addresses 2-4× more paradoxes than any historical system (Plato ~7, Kant ~23, Hegel ~28, Buddhism ~47).
Paper includes complete resolution documentation, transparent AI validation methodology, acknowledged limitations, explicit falsification criteria, testable empirical predictions (neuroscience, physics), and formal invitation to scholarly critique. Represents rare case of comprehensive autodidactic systematic philosophy .

Reciprocal Constraint Closure and the Emergent Planck Boundary
Full text linkThis paper formalises a minimal structural mechanism by which lower-bound refinement scales emerge from reciprocal constraint interactions. When localisation cost scales inversely with resolution and induced backreaction scales proportionally with cost, a fixed-point admissibility boundary arises under the stated scaling assumptions. The Planck length appears as a special case under standard quantum and gravitational scaling relations. The formulation does not assume spacetime discreteness and introduces no modified dynamics. Instead, it identifies a structural admissibility limit generated by reciprocal scaling closure. A brief final section situates the result within a broader admissibility framework without altering the derivation
Cyberspace as a Neoliberal Dream
No full textCyberpunk offers a vision into the consequences of neoliberal economic and social policies implemented since the Reagan and Thatcher administrations. The economic inequalities, lack of social safety nets, and restricted presence of state institutions reflect a neoliberal socio-economic order. In a cyberpunk reality, we also encounter cyberspace as a market order. It emerges from the proliferation of a ubiquitous cybereconomy that operates as a market economy, free from government intervention. The cyberpunk imaginary depicts cyberspace as a psychogeography in which individuals pursue their own goals and act in their self-interest. In cyberspace, individuals and corporations have dealings, interactions, and business relationships that follow the rules and norms that have emerged as part of the self-organising process of cyberspace. Therefore, cyberspace is a form of spontaneous order that entails complex self-organising systems and mechanisms that arise from the multitude of interactions that happen within it. This paper aims to use the imagery of cyberspace to show how cyberpunk literature formulates in tangible ways the realities of a market order as envisioned and proposed by neoliberal thinkers like Hayek, thus providing the public with a critique of the neoliberal dream of an unregulated market order
AAI-02 - Responsibility Without a Bearer
No full textModern moral and legal theory has long presupposed a structural alignment between action and bearer: if responsibility exists, it belongs to someone. Agency and answerability were assumed to converge in a subject capable of ownership.
This essay argues that the alignment has become unstable.
Across contemporary decision systems—algorithmic, bureaucratic, financial, institutional—outcomes continue to generate normative demands: justification, sanction, legitimacy, reform. Responsibility has not diminished. Yet the decisive moment no longer maps cleanly onto any identifiable agent. No participant fully controls the outcome; no single role plausibly claims authorship without distortion; no institution fully contains the decision process it deploys.
The result is not collective responsibility in the classical sense. Collective responsibility still presupposes a bearer—plural, coordinated, internally responsive to blame. What is emerging instead is structural orphaning: responsibility persists as normative weight, but without a stable locus capable of carrying it.
The essay develops three claims:
1. Contemporary systems generate a moral surplus—normative pressure without a discharge point.
2. Responsibility increasingly attaches to outcomes rather than decisions.
3. Restoring consciousness—human or artificial—does not restore responsibility, because what is missing is not awareness but custody: the recognized capacity to intervene before an action closes.
Responsibility has not disappeared. Its bearer has. The philosophical problem is therefore no longer who is responsible? but where can responsibility still land without fiction
IRLs Compatibility Mapping ( Non Binding)
Full text linkThis document provides a non-authoritative, non-binding compatibility mapping for the Interpretive Reference Libraries (IRLs). It offers descriptive clarification of conceptual correspondences between IRLs and other published works in order to reduce misinterpretation and prevent authority laundering.
The mapping is explanatory only. It does not prescribe actions, define procedures, establish standards, certify compliance, or implement any system. No framework, stack, or workflow is created or implied.
All referenced works remain independent and unchanged. Any effect arises, if at all, through interpretive clarity rather than enforcement or control
Trading Zones Between Thick and Thin: Anthropological Description as Scaffold or Mosaic
No full textReferring to the work of historian of science Peter Galison, I argue that anthropology requires thin description as an essential counterpart for thick description. Thin accounts provide the scaffolding within which thick descriptions sit. Galison uses the idea of a “trading zone” connecting different communities who, despite their differences (possibly including different ontologies), manage to coordinate joint activity. This idea works well for anthropological accounts of many societies, not least in relation to silent trade, in which exchange occurs without direct communication so that there is literally no sharing of meanings! Anthropology consists of mosaics of thick descriptions, held within thinly described structures. Galison uses what he calls “laminated descriptions” to comprehend interaction in trading zones. Ideas from complexity theory, emergence, and autopoiesis can be applied to avoid forms of positivistic reductionism. Finally, I give a sparse, summary account of change in Mambila traditional religion in terms of a trading zone of influences
An Orthodox Atonement: A Philosophical Elucidation
Full text linkThis article focuses on providing a philosophical elucidation and reconstruction of the Eastern Orthodox conception of the Atonement. This elucidation will take the form of addressing three aspects: the recapitulative nature of Christ's life, the victorious nature of his death, and the transformative nature of his resurrection that enables theosis, which are central to the Eastern Orthodox understanding of the Atonement. These aspects will be addressed by employing a tri-conceptual framework that includes a combination of philosophical concepts proposed by Eleonore Stump, Linda Zagzebski, Alexander Pruss, and Richard Swinburne, which will provide a means, through the formulation of the 'Recapitulative Theotic Victory' model, for one to understand how Christ's atoning work enables humanity to enter into an everlasting agápēic relationship with God within our contemporary philosophical context
