Sfera »pomiędzy« jako relacja istnień, węzeł dramatyczny oraz oś uwspólnotowienia
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2019) Mizdrak, Inga
The problem presented in this article is of significant importance in the philosophical debate on the individual. Its ambiguity and multidimensional character keep provoking new questions. The “between« plane has numerous implications in both the individual sense and the social sense. Approached from the perspective of the constitution of an interpersonal relationship, the plane points to the problem of freedom, responsibility, and reciprocality. Therefore, the aim of these analyses is to answer the question of the status, role and function of »between« in the interpersonal relationship and reference plane. Martin Buber presents »between« in the primal coil of the relationship of beings. Józef Tischner places them in the centre of the philosophy of drama, which always unfolds between a certain I and Thou. Finally, Hanna Arendt complements their analyses with the indication of the importance of community-forming, which is possible in the public sphere thanks to the idea of »between«. The analysis of the three philosophical perspectives allows to formulate a thesis, in which the »between« plane plays a key role in realizing the specific nature of a relationship, reveals its core but also brings out the subjective I and Thou even more.

Wartości europejskie w Konstytucji 3 maja z 1791 roku
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2012) Konert, Anna
An example of integrative tendencies in Central and Eastern Europe was the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, which was the first state in this part of Europe to attempt to apply the democratic principles based on the experience of the Athenian democracy as a form of government. Apart from political and economic considerations, a philosophical and moral aspect i.e. the sphere of values plays an important role in European integrative undertakings. The aim of this paper is to analyze universal threads making up the values, today not only referred to as European, but also recorded as such in the European Union treaties. The author was interested in the issue of continuity of understanding and practising of the values on which both the Government Act of May 3rd, 1791 and the 20th century European integration was founded. These values comprise respect for human dignity the ideas of freedom, democracy, equality, rule of law as well as respect for human rights. The issue of continuity of understanding and practising of the European values has been presented through analysis of selected articles of the European Union treaties and democratic principles proposed by the first European constitution. The analysis shows both the common roots and the evolution of understanding of the particular values and widening of their scope in European socio-political practice.
