Filozofska istraživanja, 12/2022, Volume: 42, Issue: 4Journal Article, Paper
Pitanju zašto studirati filozofiju autor pristupa s afirmativnog gledišta te u radu argumentira pro philosophia, odnosno opravdava i promiče mogući upis studija filozofije u obzorju današnjice razmatrajući njegove izvanfilozofijske benefite. Autor tako progovara iz specifične perspektive te studij filozofije sagledava u oportunističkom i instrumentaliziranom rakursu. Naime, ne razmatra studij kao takav, njegovu filozofijsku opravdanost i kvalitetu, nego traži njegove potencijale u i za svijet današnjice. Dakle, ne za poslove poput nastavnik filozofije ili akademski filozof, već zapravo gotovo sve druge. U tom smislu, autor razrađuje deset mogućih benefita studija filozofije: (1.) razvoj kritičkog, logičkog i refleksivnog, (2.) skrbnog i (3.) kreativnog mišljenja; (4.) prepoznavanje i formuliranje (esencijalnih) pitanja; (5.) donošenje kvalitetnih odluka (engl. decision making) i zauzimanja stavova; (6.) razvijanja vještine rješavanja problema (engl. problem solving); (7.) vršenje etičke refleksije; (8.) pomaganje u prepoznavanju životnih vrjednota; (9.) promicanje ljudskog procvata i potrage za smislom; te zapravo (10.) vrši pripremu za niz mogućih zaposlenja izvan filozofskih struka. In this paper, the author approaches the question of why one should study philosophy from an affirmative point of view and argues pro philosophia, i.e. he justifies and promotes the possible taking up of the study of philosophy in the present day by considering its extra philosophical benefits. Thus, the author speaks from a particular perspective, looking at the study of philosophy from an opportunistic and instrumentalised angle. Namely, he does not consider the study as such, its philosophical justification and quality, but looks for its potential in and for today’s world. That is, not for professions such as philosophy teachers or academic philosophers, but actually for almost everyone else. In this sense, the author elaborates ten possible benefits of studying philosophy: (1) Developing critical, logical and reflective, (2) careful and (3) creative thinking; (4) Identifying and formulating (essential) questions; (5) Making quality decisions (‘decision making’); (6) Developing problem-solving skills; (7) Enabling ethical reflection; (8) Identifying life values; (9) Human flourishing and the search for meaning; (10) Preparing for a range of possible professions outside the philosophical professions.
