The philosophy of existentialism, is a philosophy with the main thought being "existence precedes the essence" that man exists first, then in life he gives meaning or essence to his life by focusing on individual experiences. Existentialism gives individuals a way of thinking about life, what it means to me, what is true for me. Existentialist epistemology assumes that individuals are responsible for their own knowledge. The main source of knowledge is personal experience. An idealist teacher according to existentialists is a teacher who provides an open dialogue space for students to find their meaning. Students get broad opportunities to learn something that interests them, so they can find their identity. Appropriate learning methods according to existentialists are dialogue, role playing, and other methods that give freedom for students to explore meaning in themselves. Because the main task of education is to stimulate every human being to be aware of the responsibility to create meaning and definition of himself.

Actually, basic needs postulates securing of the elementary conditions of existence to every human being. Despite of the practical and theoretical importance of the subject the greatest irony is non- availability of any universal preliminary definition of the concept of basic needs. Moreover, this becomes the reason for unpredictability of various political programmes aiming at providing basic needs to the people. The shift is necessary for development of this or any other conception. No labour reforms could be made in history till labours were treated as objects. Its only after they were started being treating as subjects, labour unions were allowed to represent themselves in strategy formulations that labour reforms could become a reality. The present research paper highlights the basic needs of Human Rights in life.

The article is devoted to issues of ensuring transparency and ac- countability of authorities in the conditions of participatory democracy (democ- racy of participation). It is argued that the public should be guaranteed not only the right for access to information but also the prerequisites for expanding its par- ticipation in state governance. These prerequisites include: the adoption of clearly measurable macroeconomic and social goals and the provision of control of the processes of their compliance with the government by citizens of the country; ex- tension of the circle of subjects of legislative initiative due to realization of such rights by citizens and their groups; legislative definition of the forms of citizens’ participation in making publicly significant decisions, design of relevant orders and procedures, in particular participation in local referendum; outlining methods and procedures for taking into account social thought when making socially im- portant decisions. The need to disclose information about resources that are used by authorities to realize the goals is proved as well as key performance indicators that can be monitored by every citizen; the efforts made by governments of coun- tries to achieve these goals. It was noted that transparency in the conditions of representative democracy in its worst forms in a society where ignorance of the thought of society and its individual members is ignored does not in fact fulfill its main task — to establish an effective dialogue between the authorities and so- ciety. There is a distortion of the essence of transparency: instead of being heard, society is being asked to be informed — and passively accept the facts presented as due. In fact, transparency and accountability in this case are not instruments for the achievement of democracy in public administration, but by the form of a tacit agreement between the subjects of power and people, where the latter passes the participation of an “informed observer”.

AbstractIt is known that in countries, in which basic research on human embryos is in fact prohibited by law, working with imported human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can still be permitted. As long as hESCs are not capable of development into a complete human being, it might be the case that they do not fulfill all criteria of the local definition of an embryo. Recent research demonstrates that hESCs can be developed into entities, called embryoids, which increasingly could come closer to actual human embryos in future. By discussing the Austrian situation, we want to highlight that current embryoid research could affect the prevailing opinion on the legal status of work with hESCs and therefore calls for reassessment of the regulations in all countries with comparable definitions of the embryo.

This chapter explores the fundamental vision of the human being at the core of Aquinas’ anthropology. Aquinas has typically been construed as defending a fundamentally ‘Aristotelian’ vision of the human being. I show that this label has generated a skewed reading of Aquinas. Accordingly, this chapter does not lay claim to identify what it would take for an anthropology to be authentically ‘Thomistic’. Instead, it makes a proposal concerning what I argue is the ‘guiding vision’ of Aquinas’ anthropology: namely the ‘distinctive unity of the human’. Aquinas prioritizes this notion of distinctive unity in the different areas of his anthropology. I explore how this distinctive unity is expressed (a) in Aquinas’ account of the human soul as the ‘horizon’ of the bodily and spiritual worlds, and (b) in his definition of the human being as ‘rational animal’.

The Caspian Sea is a complicated and open natural geosystem. There are sole mechanisms of geodynamics of global and regional development combining both general energy sources and the energetics of only endogenic or only exogenous processes. Correspondingly, in the occurrence of endogenesis and exogenesis both general, sole mechanisms for them and the specific autonomous mechanisms characteristic for each of the aspect, as well as the complicated combinations of their interactions and interrelations including cascade-energetic systems of various types, levels and power are reflected. Thus, the Caspian phenomenon is a regional reaction to the general changes of global natural geosystem. The research aims studying the areas of modern tensions in the Caspian Sea lithosphere. The main task is the definition of tension state of the lithosphere and its analysis as well. Tectonic structure of the region has been reviewed and seismologic evaluation presented.

In this paper, we introduce the definition of groupoid graded rings. Group graded rings, (skew) groupoid rings, artinian semisimple rings, matrix rings and others can be regarded as special kinds of groupoid graded rings. Our main task is to classify strongly groupoid graded rings by cohomology of groupoids. Some classical results about group graded rings are generalized to groupoid graded rings. In particular, the Clifford Theorem for a strongly groupoid graded ring is given.

This article examines the operation of “reasonable steps” as a statutory standard for analysis of the availability of the defence of belief in consent in sexual assault cases and concludes that application of section 273.2(b) of the Criminal Code, as presently worded, often undermines the legal validity and correctness of decisions about whether the accused acted with mens rea, a guilty, blameworthy state of mind. When the conduct of an accused who is alleged to have made a mistake about whether a complainant communicated consent is assessed by the hybrid subjective-objective reasonableness standard prescribed by section 273.2, many decision-makers rely on extra-legal criteria and assumptions grounded in their personal experience and opinion about what is reasonable. In the midst of debate over what the accused knew and what steps were “reasonable,” given what the accused knew, the legal definition of consent in section 273.1 is easily overlooked and decision-makers focus on facts that are legally irrelevant and prejudice rational deliberation. The result is failure to enforce the law. The author proposes: (1) that section 273.2 be amended to reflect the significant developments achieved in sexual consent jurisprudence since enactment of the provision in 1992; and (2) that, in the interim, the judiciary act with resolve to make full and proper use of the statutory and common law tools that are presently available to determine whether the accused acted with mens rea in relation to the absence of sexual consent.

: No presente artigo partirei das teses de Charles Taylor sobre a necessária vinculação entre a identidade humana e a objetividade do bem para criticar o que chamarei de “naturalismo tardio” e sua “definição fraca” de ser humano, instanciado aqui pela tentativa de naturalização da ética proposta por Daniel Dennett. Defenderei a tese de que a inarticulação do “naturalismo tardio” oculta uma contradição que, juntamente com a possibilidade técnica da revisão eugênica do genoma humano, produz uma crise de nossa identidade moderna, permitindo assim a constituição lenta e gradual de uma sociedade “biocrática” de moldes pré-modernos.Abstract: In this paper I argue that Charles Taylor‘s theses on the necessary relation between human identity and the objectivity of the Good can be used as the basis to criticize what I call “late naturalism” and its “weak definition” of human being, exemplified here by the attempt of naturalization of ethics proposed by Daniel Dennett. I argue that the inarticulation of “late naturalism” hides a contradiction, which, in connection with the technical possibility of the eugenic revision of human genome, produces a crisis in our modern identity, allowing, in this way, a gradual and slow constitution of a “biocratic” society of a pre-modern kind.

The article is devoted to the issues of actualization of problems and novelties in the context of theoretical and legal segments of the bankruptcy procedure. The activities of economic entities are influenced by external and internal factors, but the issues of their solution remain in most cases in the discussions of politicians, scientists and representatives of the business environment. The effectiveness of legal entities has recently proved that the application of bankruptcy proceedings has intensified. However, remediation issues do not always have and receive adequate support. The consequence of these phenomena is the cessation of activities not only of small and medium-sized businesses, but also of individual large businesses. The main task of modern enterprises on the verge of bankruptcy is to develop tools and tools that allow to predict and analyze potential crises, to design options for their resolution and the appropriate information and economic base of management. Practical entrepreneurial activity proves that a number of issues remain unresolved and need more in-depth research and attention. This phenomenon indicates the modernity and relevance of the study given the realities of the functioning of legal entities. The article draws attention to the legislative regulation of bankruptcy procedures, identifies the priorities of legislative initiatives. The question of the scientific position of scientists concerning the characteristic of the conceptual categories "bankruptcy" and "remediation" is investigated. The author's vision of the essential characteristics of these categories is given, the substantiation of expediency of their adaptation in activity of domestic enterprises is given. A package of anti-crisis management measures has been developed taking into account the current realities of doing business. Proposals for improving the legislative regulation from the standpoint of reorganization procedures are presented. The development, approval and adaptation of the "Regulations on the stages of remediation" is proposed. From the author's point of view, it is expedient to include in the structure of the legislative regulator: conceptual apparatus for reorganization procedure, definition of methods and techniques of evaluation of clearly defined criteria with establishment of their normative limits, coverage of monitoring procedures.
