Zborník príspevkov z vedeckej konferencie s medzinárodnou účasťou v rámci projektu VEGA č. 1/0282/12 Interdisciplinárna analýza zmyslu života a jeho komponentov v sociálne významných skupinách adolescentov z hľadiska jeho formovania a možnej intervencie.

Úvodné slovo je veľmi dobrý priestor na to, aby sme spoločne zhodnotili, čo sa nám podarilo uskutočniť pri riešení našej spoločnej vedeckovýskumnej úlohy zameranej na výskum zmyslu života v sociálnej rizikových skupinách adolescentov. Predovšetkým sme si položili otázku, čo sme o zmysle života doteraz zistili, teda, čo o ňom vieme. Druhou otázkou, ktorú sme si položili, je: čo nás na doterajších výsledkoch prekvapilo. Obsahom tretej otázky bola myšlienka, čo chceme urobiť preto, aby sme rozpor toho, čo sme zistili a toho, čo chceme dosiahnuť, odstránili. Poslednou otázkou v hodnotení riešenia vedeckovýskumnej úlohy bola otázka: čo o zmysle života adolescentov (ne)vieme a chceme vedieť v budúcnosti, resp. na čo sa sústrediť, aby sme vedeli vypracovať čo najefektívnejšie logoterapeutické a socioterapeutické metódy k práci sociálnych pracovníkov so sociálne rizikovými skupinami adolescentov.

The last decade marks not only the average life expectancy increase in healthy population, but also life expectancy increase in group of people with intellectual disorders/disabilities. Due to their diagnosis that defines and classifies them into specific categories, people with intellectual disability are finding themselves in a constant confrontation with obstacles negatively affecting the saturation of their existential needs. It creates mostly educational, social, cultural, psycho-social and economical disadvantage in the context of their lives. Consequently, their active potential is weakened, making it unable for them to influence public affairs in society from a position of an adult or elderly citizen. Building up on this condition, the focus of this monograph is on understanding and explanation of prevailing concept of social inclusion and related concepts of social exclusion. These concepts influence the way we tend to define and think about the character of society, as such.

Simultaneously, we are examining that the quality of coexistence between dominant population and people with intellectual disabilities is dependent on the development of attitudes and opinions of major population towards this specific minority. These attitudes reflect the extent of social tolerance and at the same time serve as a quantification of moral values and equity in the society, whether it concerns any type of small everyday help or professional and institutionalised long-term support.

This monograph focuses on presenting professional care for people with mental disability in form of social services as a dominant type of support in our local environment. We show that the quality of social services inevitably depends on degree of professional competences social workers possess. The significance of professional competences social workers are capable of using is reflected in the degree of the competence and adequacy of their performance. The primary aim, in relation to which professional competences should be accustomed, is to enhance meaningfulness and dignity in life of mentally disabled receivers of the social services.

Competences of social workers are a dynamic phenomenon that modifies along the development of society and also with the frequently altering needs of people with intellectual disability as receivers of the social service. For this reason we designed the presented research to reflect our goal to reappraise the scope of professional competences and define the required professional functions of social workers working with people with intellectual disability.

This monograph is dedicated not only to professionals working with this group of people but also aims at answering basic questions to practical issues that families with a intellectualy disabled member are coming into contact with.

Etika starostlivosti

E-book

E-book

Adriana Jesenková

Etika starostlivosti ponúka inšpiratívne spôsoby, ako premýšľať o vzťahoch a spojeniach, ktorých sme súčasťou. Poskytuje nové/ neobvyklé čítanie/ porozumenie ľudských vzťahov, a tým nám umožňuje novým spôsobom a adekvátne reagovať na niektoré empirické výzvy (Pettersen 2011, s. 51). Ešte pred dvadsiatimi piatimi rokmi bolo uvažovanie o starostlivosti spojené s rozhodnutiami žien v privátnej sfére týkajúcimi sa ich osobných dilem a problémov. V priebehu posledných dvoch desaťročí zástancovia etiky starostlivosti ukázali, že ideál starostlivosti má potenciál byť regulatívom nielen súkromného správania, ale aj ľudských interakcií vo všeobecnosti. V súčasnosti majú myšlienky o starostlivosti silu meniť spôsob, ako hodnotíme osobné vzťahy, profesionálne správanie, verejnú politiku, medzinárodné vzťahy a globálne otázky. Relevancia etiky starostlivosti v toľkých širokých oblastiach života, z ktorých mnohé sa vyznačujú vzájomnými inkompatibilitami a protichodnými záujmami, je podmienená viacerými faktormi, avšak jedným z najvýznamnejších je práve tvorivosť a plodnosť myslenia predstaviteliek a predstaviteľov etiky starostlivosti, ktoré/í vyvíjajú etické koncepcie, modely a metódy schopné uchopiť a analyzovať ľudské vzťahy v celej ich rôznosti (Petersen 2011, s. 52). Etika starostlivosti totiž v porovnaní s tradičnými etickými koncepciami a teóriami z oblasti morálnej filozofie prináša radikálne odlišné súbory modelov a normatívnych koncepcií. V súčasnosti je to práve feministická etika starostlivosti, ktorá ponúka kritické premyslenie starostlivosti v priestore morálnej filozofie, etiky a sociálnej filozofie.

Cieľom predkladanej publikácie je identifikovať pojem, predmet, prístup, filozofické základy a východiská, ako aj možnosti aplikácie etiky starostlivosti ako špecifického morálneho prístupu, a zároveň ako špecifickej morálnej teórie na poli spoločenskovedného a humanitného skúmania. V slovenskom akademickom prostredí na uplatnenie etiky starostlivosti ako špecifického morálno-filozofického prístupu zamerala svoju pozornosť najmä Zuzana Kiczková, a to osobitne v oblasti ekofilozofie, rodových štúdií a bioetiky, pričom čiastkové problémy etiky starostlivosti rozpracovávala aj Marianna Szapuová.

Doktorandské miscelaneá 4

E-book

E-book

Lukáš Šutor (ed.)

The proposed anthology represents for many doctoral students their first entry into the publishing environment of scientific genres. The studies in such cases contain the essence of future dissertation works, which represent the creative pinnacle of doctoral studies. In addition to providing doctoral students with the opportunity to publish scientific outputs, we also consider the anthology a space for interdisciplinary encounters and mutual enrichment. However, interdisciplinarity is not merely a characteristic of the anthology as a whole but also of some studies.

Most notable interdisciplinary approaches are observed in literary studies. The traditional subject of research into artistic texts is enriched in individual studies by examining theatrical and film works (Peter Getlík), linguistic aspects of phrasemes (Ivana Hudiková), musical elements (Terézia Kulíková), visual art (Dominika Petáková), and digital spaces of new media (Alexandra Popovičová). From other disciplines, we highlight Miroslava Süčová Vernarská’s study, which extends psychological research into sociological and linguistically communicative contexts (the concept of metaphor), or conversely, Zuzana Šoltésová and Dušan Šlosár’s contribution, analyzing eating disorders from their disciplinary background in social work.

Both mentioned disciplines also include contributions with traditional research subjects. Nikola Fabiny from psychology analyzes consequence expectations in the context of goal selection and achievement. Jana Plavnická and Dušan Šlosár’s co-authored study from the Department of Social Work presents a multi-perspective analysis of integration barriers for immigrants in Slovakia. Within their own disciplines, both philosophy contributions operate: Juraj Brenišin interprets the ethical aspects of Avicbron’s Fons vitæ, while Michal Kručko examines Edmund Husserl’s unfinished work through a comparative lens of his students Jan Patočka and Roman Ingarden. The anthology concludes with Lukáš Lukačín’s study (written in English), which explores the semantic-grammatical category of modality in the verbs MAY and CAN within legal-administrative documents of the European Union.

The representation of academic disciplines and doctoral students’ individual creative outputs in Doktorandské miscelaneá 4 is thus appropriately diverse. We present this publication to the broader academic community as a representative overview of trends in young scholars’ thinking across the spectrum of humanities and social sciences doctoral programs at the Faculty of Arts, UPJŠ in Košice.

The publication "Manifestations of Radicalism and Extremism in Social Relations" is an input analysis of the individual areas that the authors want to focus on in their research activities in the study of radicalism and extremism. The context of the study is in the possibility of social work in influencing radical and extremist tendencies in those areas that we can designate as working fields of social work.

The authors of the individual papers focus on the theoretical definition of extremism and radicalism, types and forms of extremism, factors affecting the formation of the radical and extremist thoughts, focusing on specific target groups (especially youth) and the role of social work in the issue of radicalism and extremism, and they also represent the results of research in the field.

Dejiny Balkánu po druhej svetovej vojne

E-book

Maroš Melichárek

The history of the Balkans (not just in the 20th century) and its nations have had an irreplaceable place at the Department of History, Faculty of Arts, UPJŠ in Košice for several years. Therefore, this textbook is a logical culmination of this established trend. It represents the third publication focused on Southeastern Europe, as in 2015 a monograph titled International Relations in the 19th and 20th Centuries I (Nations of Southeastern Europe in International Politics, 1804 – 1856) was published, and in 2020 Nations of Southeastern Europe under International Politics from 1856 to 1913.

Logically then, this publication complements the literature portfolio (both thematically and chronologically) for students interested in this still turbulent region. Previous works are scientific monographs that can also be used during pedagogical processes; however, this work is directly aimed at students and their needs.

Hodnota ľudského života v konotáciách Postmoderny

E-book

E-book

Marián Bednár

The scientific monograph The Value of Human Life in the Connotations of Postmodernism presents a current issue of reflections on the value of human life. It sees in the broader connotations of postmodern society, where the approaches of applied ethics (bioethics), philosophy and Christian theology intersect. This issue is embedded in the historical, philosophical, sociological and cultural-social Postmodernism.

The monograph analyses the postmodern value system, the dominant postmodern anthropological concept, secular bioethics and civil law in relation to human life and its value. The key is the confrontation of the postmodern anti-life mentality and life in the most discussed bioethical issues: contraception, artificial insemination techniques, genetic manipulation, abortion, sterilization, (bio) technology, euthanasia. An alternative approach is offered by the theological vision of human and life presented in the Judeo-Christian context. In the light of modern theological disciplines, the personnel concept is enriched by theological anthropology culminating in an eschatological vision.

In this sense, the issue of the value of human life culminates, which is also inspired by one of the most important encyclicals of Pope John Paul II. Evangelium vitae (25th anniversary of its writing). It is she who calls for the acceptance and respect of every human life and for the practical development of a new culture of life.

Patočka, fenomenológia a dejiny filozofie

E-book

E-book

Vladimír Leško - Milovan Ješič - Pavol Tholt

Filozofické dielo najvýznamnejšieho českého filozofia 20. storočia Jana Patočku (1907–1977) vyniká jedinečnou mysliteľkou originalitou. Už v dobe svojho vzniku veľmi výrazne prekračovalo úzke hranice dobového česko-slovenského duchovného priestoru a neopakovateľným spôsobom spojilo našu krajinu s najvyspelejšími filozofickými učeniami západného myslenia, v ktorom hrali dominantnú úlohu Husserlova fenomenológia a Heideggerova fundamentálna ontológia. Zaiste, bolo by veľkou chybou, pokiaľ by sme však chceli redukovať rozhodujúcu pozíciu Patočkovej filozofickej tvorby len na recepciu a kriticko-tvorivé domýšľanie Husserlovej a Heideggerovej filozofie. V tejto súvislosti nemôžeme v nijakom prípade vynechať najmä rozhodujúci podiel Eugena Finka, ktorý uviedol Patočku do tajov Husserlovej a Heideggerovej filozofie. Obidvaja myslitelia potom celoživotne pokračovali v neustálom tvorivom filozofickom dialógu. Ale nemožno tiež nespomenúť Patočkov intenzívny záujem aj o diela Schelera, Ingardena, Landgrebeho, ale tiež aj Sartra a ďalších.

Probácia v systéme trestnej politiky a...

Vladimír LichnerDušan Šlosár

Issues of punishment are directly linked to a state’s criminal policy, which is an inseparable part of its social policy. Historically, the state has held a unique dominant position in the realm of punishment. Once the conditions for imposing a penalty are met, the state fulfills its obligation by sentencing through independent courts. However, it does not address questions of satisfaction, which belong to the victim. The victim may be a specific physical person or legal entity that suffered harm due to the criminal act. This harm simultaneously affects civil society as a whole. The state prioritizes its duty to punish and decide on the matter over compensating the harmed individual or civil society.

By mediation in criminal cases, we mean extrajudicial facilitation of resolving disputes between the offender and the harmed party, with the assistance and personal participation of a mediator. The mediator, as an independent and impartial person, helps parties identify their interests and supports them in finding shared, practical, and realistic solutions to the points causing their conflict. Probation refers to monitoring, supervising the accused, defendant, or convicted individual, as well as providing individual assistance to the offender and encouraging them to lead a lawful life. This reduces the risk of recidivism, or repeated criminal behavior.

Doktorandské miscelaneá 6

E-book

Lukáš Šutor (ed.)

The current sixth volume of the Doctoral Miscellanea consists of eight contributions from four study programs, with two contributions also involving authors outside of doctoral studies. Given the limitations on the length of individual contributions and the uniqueness of the research, the authors have chosen varying widths and depths in presenting their dissertation topics. Some contributions serve as an introduction to the issues, others provide a summary of previous results, and still others focus on a detailed analysis of a specific problem. These three approaches may not only reveal the stage of research in which the doctoral candidate finds themselves but also their potential research priorities.

The main commonality across all issues of the proceedings remains interdisciplinary diversity, which shows a certain continuity. Specific themes appear regularly. In these cases, alongside alternating doctoral candidates, the key figure is the supervisor (in the role of co-author) and their research focus/project in which the doctoral candidates participate. This development of research continuity is particularly evident in contributions from the field of social work.
