The debate about the so called “excluding design” has been a focus for applied philosophy for several years. The structure of this debate is constituted by deontological and consequentialist’s applied ethics and as well as agonistic democratic approaches. This paper asks for the applicability of these points of view to the particular socio-political reality of Montevideo. Examining this reality closer, I hold that we cannot comprehend the recent aestheticization of the excluding design there through these contemporary philosophical frameworks. As an alternative philosophical procedure, I analyze the aestheticization of excluding design in Montevideo from Rahel Jaeggi’s immanent criticism. I hold that this process of aestheticization implies an ideological regressive “form of life”. And I also argue that the Uruguayan democracy is affected by this ideological regression. Nevertheless, because this aestheticization is not an exclusive Uruguayan phenomenon, this paper intends to open one direction in applied philosophy of urban design.

This article investigates a recent attempt to apply philosophy within the discipline of psychotherapy and to investigate the somewhat undefined realm of philosophical counselling. After introducing the claims of this interdisciplinary exercise and after addressing the problems involved in crossing the boundaries between philosophy and psychotherapy, the article elaborates on  Alex Howard’s (2000) [Philosophy for counselling and psychotherapy: Pythagoras to post-modernism. London: Macmillan] attempt to make explicit use of philosophy in psychotherapy, using his interpretation and application of Heraclitus’ philosophy as case study.

AbstractI argue that Classical American Pragmatists—Royce, James, Dewey, Perice, Addams, Du Bois, and Locke subscribed to this view and practiced philosophy by focusing on experience and directing a critical eye to major problems in living. Thus Royce and Dewey explored the nature of genuine community and its role in developing a flourishing individual life but also a public, democratic life. Royce and James engaged in a phenomenological analysis of human experience including religious experience developing a rich understanding of human psychological, social, and religious development. Dewey, Royce and Perice applied the lessons of the scientific communal experience to problem solving in everyday life. Dewey explored life’s aesthetic dimensions. Addams, Du Bois and Locke applied philosophy to problems of living with discrimination as an immigrant or an African American.

Behaviour Changes

The State Civil Apparatus (ASN) must be able to actualize the five basic values of ASN which consist of Accountability, Nationalism, Public Ethics, Quality Commitment and Anti-Corruption (ANEKA) based on Law Number 5 of 2014 concerning ASN. These basic values of ANEKA are the initial capital for ASN in carrying out its main duties and functions in the working institution. This study aims to determine the effect of understanding the basic values of ANEKA on behaviour change before and after basic training (Latsar) CPNS. This research uses mixed methods research. In the quantitative stage, data from 162 CPNS Class 1 to 12 the Year 2019 Latsar participants collected through a questionnaire survey were analyzed using the Paired Samples t-Test method technique, while the qualitative stage was conducted by conducting an interview process and open questionnaires to 162 CPNS Class 1 to 12 of 2019 and 8 supervisors of the work unit of the Latsar participants were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that there was an effect of the basic values of Accountability (X1), Nationalism (X2), Public Ethics (X3), Quality Commitment (X4) and Anti-Corruption (X5) in before and after attending CPNS Latsar on behaviour changes in Latsar participants. CPNS so that according to the supervisor of the work unit there was a significant change in the behaviour of the participants by the expected behaviour as a professional CPNS compared to before being included in the CPNS Latsar and there were obstacles experienced by the CPNS Latsar participants having difficulty actualizing ANEKA's basic values in the form of work behaviour.
