| Sumario: | People become more and more unable to do is to establish connections: to grasp the multidimensional connections between events or the connections in what is going on around them, to see the different kinds of their causes and thus to make right diagnoses and explanations of the situations in which they find themselves. This loss of the object of knowledge is a result of the loss of the object in epistemology. In the XXth century Pragmatism with its "many truths" and logical empiricism with its ideological concept of science had played crucial, though quite different, roles in the loss of the object in epistemology. The basic conditions of paideia, could contribute to the humanization of human beings. These basic conditions are "to know oneself " and to develop the ability to know the object, including values, i.e. to develop one's intellectual and ethical capabilities, which also lead to self knowledge. Philosophical education is indispensable and especially a training to help everyone to develop what I call the "ontological approach". |
