DESPRE DUBLA DIMENSIUNE, TEORETICĂ ȘI PRACTICĂ, A FILOSOFIEI

Rezumat

Although philosophy has bemm seen for a long time as a privileged field of the spirit, today it is considered useful only for the formation of the humanist general culture, which, given that society is mainly oriented towards the practical side, is no longer a priority. However, beyond the speculative dimension, philosophy also has a practical, applied side, derived from the first, which society is not aware of. Starting from these general premises, the article highlights some of the current functions of philosophy, able to configure its specific mission in contemporary society, without which this cannot find its balance. Finally, the author launches to the philosophical community and to all decision-makers in Romania a series of concrete proposals, the implementation of which would transform the philosophical education in our country into one of the most powerful tools for consolidating democracy and development economic and social.
