Karl Jaspers‘ Idea of University
Get PDFThis study focuses on the nature, basis, changes, and reception of the concept of the “idea of university” by one of the leading German philosophers of the 20th century, Karl Jaspers, who ranked for over half a century among the sharp, and often controversial, widely accepted analysts of political life in Germany and Europe, and that namely in relation to the theory, development, and institutional and social integration of science and philosophical thought. The study concentrates on the ideological sources and limits of the impact and validity of Jasper’s concept of university reform, and on the mission and essence of science in the period after the First and Second World Wars in the contexts of German social-political discussions in the sixties, i. e. especially in the contexts of the three versions of his work “The Idea of University” (1923, 1946, and 1961). Attention is paid to Jasper’s foundation of the specifics and of the efforts of scientific knowledge and research in his philosophy of existence and epistemology, as well as to his differentiation of science and philosophy and of science and faith. The thematisation of Jaspers’ definition of rationality and of freedom as the fundamentals of a specific European culture tries to take into consideration the importance and topicality of such reflections, as well as showing together with Jaspers the necessity of its systematic-theoretical anchoring

Singles’ Attitudes On Dating in the Digital Era
Get PDFThis text focuses on the attitudes of single young people on dating. As a part of this study, twenty interviews with respondents between the ages of 20 and 40 – who loosely represent the generation of millennials, that is, those who grew up with technology and who are taking advantage of the globalized world – were analysed using thematic analysis. Using semi-structured interviews, this text critically examines how young singles think about mate selection, where they meet prospective partners, and their reasons for choosing online dating sites. Another area of interest are the barriers to using dating services and the behaviour of singles on dating sites, especially regarding sex dynamics. The results correspond to previous findings from studies conducted abroad. On the one hand, a liberal, individualized approach to relationships is evident among the respondents: they focus on their needs within a relationship, they want a partner with whom they will develop mutually, they have a desire to experiment with different relationship forms, and they quickly adopt new technologies when dating. On the other hand, they are still attracted to the traditional ideal of marriage and family, the expectations of men and women within a relationship differ, and even in modern online dating, traditional sex patterns appear.This text focuses on the attitudes of single young people on dating.
