Brazillian Wax Shapes

Controversy over a tissue toxic Securities

Our start in this course in the pot "Ethics and Citizenship" of the thinking we have done in the classroom text Vicenç Navarro, a professor at Pompeu Fabra University and published in the journal "Public" on 17 September.
In commenting in class, the controversy has emerged: The purpose of this article is that as self-regulation of television is not working, public authorities, governments should intervene directly prohibiting certain content. Do we agree with this censorship? Must be the parents who select the shows they see the children and let the television broadcast what they want? Well, Now it's your turn. The task I propose the deadline is October 12 to discuss with their parents or guardians at home this article and write down thoughts in a notebook family of the subject. As always, you can add any input on the blog who wish to make public. Who will be the first father, mother, grandfather ... who dares?

How To Display The License Plate

Our generation replicant


These first weeks we started our philosophical turning around the concept of "youth." If philosophy is, as Unamuno said, a reflection from and the "man of flesh and blood", what better start than taking the time to understand what we are, who are you, young-at this stage of history in which we live.
To face this analysis we used a text Feixa Carles, professor of social anthropology at the University of Lleida, published in the newspaper El Pais on Friday, September 18 .
As we mentioned, the author presents three models concept of youth as more or less prolonged phase of transition to adulthood:
The traditional, based on the "Tarzan syndrome", sees the teenager as "the noble savage that inevitably must be civilized" and how before.
The modern, based on "Peter Pan syndrome," which sees youth as the subject of a revolution against adult society and must be tamed slowly (increasing the period of schooling, for example) to accept the system .
And finally, the postmodern, the characteristic of S. XXI., The youth "Blade Runner." He who understands this Today's youth is the most prepared to adapt to changes through its mastery of technology, but that also is less free because it has no historical memory and therefore has no awareness of the need for change. So if, against the modern model, might be able to lead the revolution that the system needs, as they have the mastery of the media, "his rebellion is doomed to failure and can only star in episodic upheavals and sterile, hoping to acquire some day awareness that adults do. " This would explain the bottle or macro party organized by public institutions.
far our reflection in the classroom. But "Civieusebio" wants it to reflect on the classroom as taken home. And that is the task of this activity: They have until Monday October 12 to share these thoughts with their parents or guardians and record it in his notebook in the classroom. Which model is more present in everyday life? Who is responsible for this lack of memory and therefore awareness of today's youth? What a way forward can do and what changes proposed to the young-adult relationship?
As always, leave as a comment to this post any thoughts they want to make public.

Period Due, Cervix High And Hard

icons

This blog will be used both by students of "Ethics and Citizenship" as the "Philosophy and citizenship." To quickly access articles that interest them, the two subjects will be symbolized by an icon.

To "Philosophy and Citizenship" will use the famous drawing by Leonardo Da Vinci on the proportions of the human figure and that our objective in this course is to discover the philosophy as a way to place ourselves in the world.




In the case of "Ethics and Citizenship" our icon will refer to the ability to choose as the foundation of ethical action.
