(Original title: K problému odpovědnosti u Ágnes Hellerové)
Filozofia, 67 (2012), 4, 269-281.
Abstract

Heller deals with the problem of responsibility explicitly and implicitly as well in all her works on ethics and morals. The author tries to show the relatedness of these two approaches.

Abstract

The paper discusses presuppositions of the so-called trademark argument for the existence of God presented by René Descartes (1596 – 1650) in his Meditations on First Philosophy.

(Original title: Koncept vlastníctva v Lockovej politickej filozofii)
Filozofia, 67 (2012), 4, 291-302.
Abstract

Locke’s conception of private property as developed mainly in his Two Treatises on Government is still being discussed among philosophers.

(Original title: Spoločenstvo vo viere. Poznámky ku Kantovmu pojmu cirkvi)
Filozofia, 67 (2012), 4, 303-314.
Abstract

The paper is based on the assumption that in Kant’s system of morality is not rooted in religion – just the opposite, the religion is rooted in morality. According to Kant, morality necessarily leads to religion by which he understands the knowledge of all our duties, not only as categorical commands of our own reason but also as commands of God.

(Original title: Počátky fenomenologie u Brentana a Husserla)

(Original title: Od miesta k (letmému) pohľadu. Fenomenologický prístup E. Caseyho)
Filozofia, 67 (2012), 4, 323-334.
Abstract

The paper offers an overview of the work of Edward S. Casey focusing on his phenomenological approach to peripheral and interconnected phenomena such as place and glance. Casey shows how the glance enters the world as well as how the world responds to it. Focusing on glance therefore reveals a possible articulation of how the place becomes a phenomenon within a… Read more

(Original title: Svět a věda u Ludwiga von Misese. Esej o misesovské metafyzice)
Filozofia, 67 (2012), 4, 335-346.
Abstract

The paper deals with von Mises’ metaphysics and argues that his methodological dualism concerns only his epistemology. The framework of Mises´s ontology is materialistic monism. Although Mises strongly criticizes materialism, his critique does not concern metaphysical ontological materialism as long as it does not try to eliminate the specific method of the social… Read more
