  1. Values and inclusion Carlos reis

  2. 1. UNDERSTANDING IFFERENCE 1.1. What are values?

  3. our understanding of difference theother,strange, menacing, avoiding,negative worthyofinterest, enchanting, seductive, positive

  4. our understanding of difference two ways of recognizing difference 1. the assimilative/digestive way we assimilatebecause we take out, from the stranger, his difference, so we make him “just like us”, but what about is difference? we digestbecause we make his difference nule. But we should recognize he is different and that there is good in that, because there is richness in difference. (remember the meaning of throwing the dice!)

  5. our understanding of difference 2. the real recognition of difference how do we get there? 2.1. once you don’t understand it a) be carefull b) respect it

  6. our understanding of difference 2.2. once you start to understand it a) value it b) develop your interest about it (remember you’re lookin into a way of facing/dealing with life itself) 2.3. once you get to understand it a) let it be b) support it if necessary

  7. our understanding of difference remember that in being what he is, the other, the whom you are not, beingdifferenthe can be a contribution for your own life, a way through life, and life is such a mistery

  12. 2. VALUES: WHAT ARE THEY AND HOW SHOULD WE HARMONIZE national and universal values 1.1. What are values?

  13. inclusion? articulating values national – identities universal – similarities difference and equality

  14. values? values are infinite: no exhaustive table we can create new values

  15. what do we know about values? those to be human creativity unknown subconscious kown wedon’tknow our values conscious kown weknow

  16. values: what are they? • the result of a tension between • a subject • and • an object value is a structural quality that arises from the reaction of a subject before the properties of an object, a relationship that occurs in a given situation.

  17. values: what are they? • Frondizi (1995): • features: • polarity (positive-negative) Justice injustice • hierarchy (higher-lower values). • lower values are more relative • higher values require absoluteness

  18. values can we achieve the fully development of a superior value? love happiness freedom we all know what it is… but… can we exhaust completely its meaning?

  19. freedom • explicit recognition, • not so much that we were born free • but that we are born for freedom • freedom should be favored since birth, or we would risk that it never emerge All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.

  20. freedom • We all know what it is… but… • we are not responsible for being born • We are under determinations and dependences: • natural • social • conscious • unconscious • we can transcend what determines us only in a limited way • freedom has two meanings: • a negative sense: or external, relating to freedom from coercion – it refers to all the civil and political freedoms as much as for the necessary material conditions, • a positive sense: or internal, related to the autonomy of rational choices

  21. freedom • refers to (Laupies, 2005): • Independence: to act and to do what we propose ourselves • has to deal with the reality that limits the action • the limits of our understanding of the possibilities • we must invent the possibilities • autonomy or self-determination: free will, • interior resolution, • requires awareness of oneself as an agent

  22. freedom • Max Scheler (1960): • to act impulsively is just to act without reason, while being free requires to act by motivated volition • true freedom lies in being determined by values. • motivated volition opens a problematic: • 1) what freedom of decision we really have? • 2) what is the degree of freedom of our personal baggage of purposes? • 3) what is the degree of freedom allowed by the framework of choices in general?

  23. freedom • we are only free of: • “wanting", • “choosing” or "have-to-choose“, • within the sphere of choices we have, that sets limits to our “wanting“-”have-to-choose”.

  24. nationalvalues express socio-cultural difference: identities cultural paths to deal with life there is good in difference richness in difference

  25. universal values express fundamental and inherently claims substantive conditions to be human(s) should we accept all differences, particularly those that conflict with those values that we consider fundamental? outside the scope of certain core values nor are we humans nor let others be
