ANALYTIC AND INTEGRATIVE PHILOSOPHY OF LANGUAGE

<p>Autori polaze od jednostranosti koje su rezultat apsolutizovanja analitičkog načina mišljenja u savremenoj filozofiji. Četiri teze prikazuju slabe tačke oficijelne Analitičke filozofije (apsolutizovanje onog logičkog, ignorisanje drugih medija, jednodimenzionalnost favorizovanog običnog jezika, „omekšavanje“ strogih zahteva za važenjem). U nameri da prevaziđu te nedostatke, ujedno ne ispuštajući iz vida trajne tekovine analitičkog mišljenja (ideal jasnoće, jedinstven metod, samokritika putem kritike jezika), autori se na kraju članka zalažu za integrativno shvatanje jezika koje pored onih analitički obuhvaćenih aspekata jezika (logičko-semantički i pragmatički aspekat) u sebi obuhvata i nove aspekte fenomena jezika (efektivni, ekspresivni, kreativni aspekat jezika).</p>

Creating an Entrepreneurial Mindset

Change in the structure and profile of the industrial base in Ireland emphasises the importance of the small firm sector in certain growth sectors. One such sector is the information and communication technology (ICT) sector, which now demands a more enterprising graduate. This chapter emphasises the importance of third-level1 education in preparing students for their career, either as employee or entrepreneur. We discuss how entrepreneurship education, through its broad and integrative philosophy accommodates the changing workplace demands. It links together the synergy of enterprising activity and the small firm ICT sector through education courses, specifically entrepreneurship education. This is achieved through the adoption of the process framework for ICT entrepreneurship education. Describing how they can be modified to facilitate and encourage the more creative and enterprising mindset in the ICT student, we present two courses that have been successfully implemented at the University of Limerick.

Auroville: Visionary Images and Social Consequences in a South Indian Utopian Community

The utopian community of Auroville (‘City of Dawn’) is nestled along the Coromandel Coast of India approximately five miles north of Pondicherry. Though conceived as a harmonious society and city modelled after the integrative philosophy of the twentieth-century philosopher-mystic, Aurobindo, Auroville has been from its inception a collection of disparate settlements embodying social fragmentation not unity. The question this essay attempts to answer is how the ‘unitary vision’ which the founder and the charter of Auroville expounded is related to the social and physical disorder that has characterized Auroville from its beginning. Put differently, if it is true that an intentional community's physical space will reflect its philosophical (or theological) model, what are the underlying concepts or images which have produced the current situation in Auroville? In answering such a question, much can be learned about the relationship between religious ideas and symbols and the intentional communities to which they intend to give rise.
